Glorious Treasure — Louisa Gillette

FROM THE SPIRES OF 19TH-CENTURY OXFORD TO THE SPLENDORS OF ANCIENT TURKEY, DIANTHE'S QUEST WAS FUELED BY PASSION

Dianthe journeyed to Smyrna with her archaeologist father on a dangerous expedition - to unearth magnificent treasures, buried for centuries.

But the sinister Pasha who brought them to the site secretly invites Roderick, her father's prize student, to excavate nearby. Dianthe is incensed at the rugged young man's invasion - the same young man who, on a magical moon-lit night, rescued her from death - and aroused her heart to love.

Hero: Sir Roderick Hunt
Heroine: Dianthe Barham
