A question to rouse fear within the breast of any prospective governess, unless…she wasn’t a governess at all.
Yet Amelia must gain this position by whatever means necessary, for this
gentleman, dubbed The Scandalous Hugh Cadwalader by fashionable society,
is not all he seems. Behind the elegant finery and azure eyes is a dangerous
warrior of a man, a tenacious spy for the Crown.
One who might just have turned traitor…

Mr Cadwalader’s blue gaze flicked up once more.
Yet this time it held no idle humour. Just a simmering fierceness that
caused an anomalous flare of flame within Amelia.
Perhaps a warning that beneath that elegant finery and idle smile, there
lay a different man.
One of dangerous nights and dangerous intent.
Unfortunately, you couldn’t study Regency slang, so she did the next
best thing and gained a degree in Classics and History instead. This ‘led’ to
an eight-year stint in engineering.
Having left city life, she now lives in a dilapidated farmhouse where her days are spent writing, fixing the leaky roof, battling the endless vegetation, and finding pictures of well-tied cravats.

Prospect of Whitby. Oldest Thames-side Pub
In ‘A Governess Should Never… Lure a Spy’ our hero, the Scandalous Hugh Cadwalader, makes his way to the oldest Thames-side tavern in London, ‘The Prospect of Whitby’, for a clandestine encounter, so I felt the need to undertake some exhaustive research… Testing the drinks, partaking of a meal by the River Thames and taking lots of photos!
Nowadays, this area of Wapping is prosperous with exclusive apartments and select restaurants, but it wasn’t always so…
The establishment dates to around the year 1520 and was formerly nicknamed the ‘Devil’s Tavern’ due to it being frequented by pirates, cutthroats, smugglers and all-round blackguards!
A fire destroyed it sometime in the 1770’s, only the stone floor now pre-dates that, but it was rebuilt and renamed the ‘Prospect of Whitby’ after a collier boat that moored outside.
The pub has a spectacular outlook over the Thames and the views have been sketched by Turner and Whistler. An utterly random fact to come from my research is that the first fuchsia plant to arrive in England was sold at this pub in the 18th century!
Also not far away is Execution Dock where pirates were hanged…but that’s another story!
So, if you enjoy a romantic tale set in Regency London with a dangerous spy and a more dangerous governess, check out ‘A Governess Should Never… Lure a Spy.’
