Spy for Cromwell — Caroline Martin

Miranda Vernon hates Gabriel Everard with every fibre of her being. At his command, her husband Robin was brutally killed during the Civil War, leaving Miranda a widow after just two months of marriage.

So when Cromwell's spy-master John Thurloe asks her to return to her old Derbyshire home to seek out the evidence that will bring her enemy to justice, she is eager to help him.

Yet Gabriel Everard in the flesh is nothing like the monster she had imagined, and meeting him brings to the surface secrets she has hidden even from herself. Faced with all the proof she needs to bring about his downfall, can she harden herself to betray him?
