Afterword
The dates do not quite align, but I took the liberty of including the first volume in this story because it so encapsulated the adventurous and irreverent character of Julius Trafford. He is, after all, an enterprising gentleman and may have received an early copy of such auspicious work.
If you enjoyed this story, I would be incredibly grateful if you’d consider leaving an honest review. Your words help others discover the book and support future stories.
Now that the missing heir is closer to being located, Simon Scott is about to have an uncomfortable confrontation with several powerful lords.
With no alibi for the night of the coronation and no defense to provide as the evidence mounts up, how can he prove it was not he who visited the baron on the night of the coronation to bludgeon him in a fit of murderous desperation?
Does he have an unknown nephew who will inherit what he believed was his birthright?
Other than he, who would have a motive to conceal evidence of a living heir?
As the stakes mount up, Simon will need someone by his side as he battles against the accusations. Can his childhood friend and neighbor, Madeline Bigsby, help him thwart the killer’s plans to frame him for a murder he did not commit?
All will be revealed in Miss Bigsby & the Aristocrat Next Door, the fourth book in the Reluctant Reckonings series of Regency mystery romances.
