'You Are Not What I Asked For,' the Duke Told His Bride — She Handed Back His Ring and Left

"You are not what I asked for," the Duke of Faversham told his veiled bride at the altar, in front of half of Kent. He had lifted her veil and seen a red birthmark on her cheek. But Philippa Linwood knew his voice at once. He was the hurt stranger she had nursed all one stormy night in a dark glasshouse, the man who never saw her face. So she pulled off his ring, laid it in his hand, and walked out of the chapel. That same night, locked in her stepmother's attic, she hears the Duke's charming cousin plan his death. A midnight run through the fields. A wedding to an old moneylender, stopped at the very last second. Secret paintings that silence a mocking ballroom. Foxglove in a sleeping draught, a cruel letter, a trap, and a madhouse with iron bars, where the Duke is shown a fresh grave.
