Years ago, Miss Esme Astell fell hopelessly in love with Charles Brittle, an unassuming and highly respectable London bookmaker.
Then he disappeared without a word . . .

In a dark alleyway—
In a drenching rain—
In a chase with the police—
In Scotland.
Can she fall again, this time for the dangerous scoundrel he's become?
