Gareth is a tall, lanky gentleman who was abandoned by his lazy baronet father in his youth but unexpectedly inherited his estate in the Romney Marshes in Kent after his death.

The first in a new duology introduces us to Gareth Inglis and an unnamed mystery man from Kent as they end a spontaneous week-long fling, going their separate ways on bad terms. The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen by KJ Charles She previously spent 13 years in corporate finance before starting to write full-time, and we’re so glad she did. This is the author’s sophomore release after The Lost Apothecary, which is about to be adapted into a TV series. As they work with this exclusive group, they start to find that they may be in the midst of a crime themselves. However, the exclusive men's-only London Séance Society invites Vaudeline and her understudy to return to England to help solve a high-profile murder. In this book, it’s 1873 and famed British medium Vaudeline D'Allaire and her skeptical apprentice Lenna Wickes are living in Paris, attempting to solve crimes by communicating with murder victims to find their attackers. It has everything: Historical fiction, magical realism, gothic, a whodunit-with-vengeance theme, paranormal activity and suspense.

With a 300,000-copy first printing, this book has so much cross-genre appeal.
