The Heart of a Finch

A Pride and Prejudice Vagary

By: Grandy Eden

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A spy forged in vengeance. A conspiracy that threatens her home. A love that could heal his soul.

Shattered by his fiancée's brutal murder, Asher Barlow shed his life as a gentleman to become Alstair Finch: a phantom agent for the Crown. His single-minded quest for the spymaster who ruined his life leads him through the darkest alleys of Europe, but his grim work leaves him haunted by a deep melancholia—a fatigue of the very soul.

When his undercover mission to France is abruptly cut short, he is sent to the elegant estate of Rosings Park, where he discovers the war has followed him home. A clandestine league has infiltrated the estate, targeting its mistress, the formidable widow Anne de Bourgh Morrison. They seek to destroy her, her home, and retrieve intelligence that could shatter the monarchy.

Reuniting with Colonel Fitzwilliam, the man who once arrested him but is now a steadfast friend and ally, Finch must devise a trap for the conspirators. But Anne is no damsel in distress; her fierce intelligence makes her an indispensable ally in the fight to protect her children. As they work together, she sees beyond the lethal spy to the wounded soul beneath, while Finch finds himself fighting not just for duty, but for a future he thought long dead.

To win this two-front war—against the traitors at Rosings and the darkness within himself—Finch will need more than his skills as a spy. With the unexpected spiritual guidance of the Vicar George Wickham, the man who helped save Colonel Fitzwilliam from his own demons, Finch must confront his deadliest enemy to claim a second chance at life and love.

A sequel to Without a Leg to Stand On, The Heart of a Finch is a gripping Regency-era spy thriller and a powerful story of redemption, proving that the most difficult battle is the one for the human soul.
