    About this ebook

    Set in 1827 England, Last Days of Summer follows the exploits of young Lissa Hughes and Miles Johnson as they both discover truths about their previously hidden pasts. From their first meeting, they find themselves embroiled in striving to bring down a consortium of smugglers with the aid of family and friends that brings them all to the attention of Britain’s master of spies. As they journey between Paris and London, they become deeper embroiled in this effort to protect the nation, and between the lies, secrets, near-death experiences and a pitched battle, Miles seeks to claim what is rightfully his: the title of viscount.
