Lord Robert Andreville, the second son, returned to his home in Yorkshire after a dozen dangerous years spent spying for his country against Bonaparte. He is soul-weary and unsure what to do with the rest of his life.

Maxima Collins is half-Mohawk and half British. She and her father traveled from their home in America to England, to meet the British side of Maxima's heritage. However, not long after they arrived, Maxima's father died. Maxima overhears her uncle and aunt discussing her situation and Maxima realizes that she needs to travel to London to find out the particulars of her father's death. Along the way, she trips over Robert Andreville and they travel to London together, experiencing lots of adventures and problems.

I thought the whole book was boring. There is a more-interesting romance between secondary characters, but not by much. I was angry when the 'solution' to Maxima's father's death was revealed. The ending was rushed after a leisurely telling of the rest of the story. 3.5 stars
