’Trust no one-London’s secrets are written in the blood of the innocent’London, England, 1869. When Captain Austin Willems of the 67th South Hampshire Regiment returns home to mourn his beloved father, he uncovers a devastating truth: his father was ruthlessly swindled by the powerful directors of Grand Overland Rail-a shadowy cabal hiding behind privilege and peerage.

With the loyal retired sergeant, Ollie Nagle and the captivating Harriet Stephenson at his side, Austin faces peril, an unexpected romance, and the relentless pursuit of the Metropolitan Police. Can he restore his father’s legacy, expose the railway scandal, and survive the deadly game of honour and deceit?Perfect for fans of gripping historical mysteries, 'A Gentleman at Heart' is a page-turning tale of revenge, romance, and justice in a world where even gentlemen can be villains.
