Book
Devil in Disguise
First published 2021
Widowed businesswoman Merritt Sterling meets Scottish distiller Keir MacRae while managing the shipping enterprise left by her husband. Attempts on Keir’s life and the discovery of his concealed family history draw the pair into a conflict that reconnects the Ravenels with the Wallflowers.
The novel centres women’s participation in shipping, warehousing and commercial management in Victorian London. Maritime trade and Highland whisky production provide an economic setting for a romance that also revisits inheritance and legitimacy.
