Although part of a series, the book also serves as a stand-alone. == Plot == Katherine Talbert, a young country girl from good origin, is invited by her Uncle, the Mad Duke of Riverside, to come as a guest to his house in the capital, where he decides it would be more amusing for his niece to learn swordplay than to follow the usual path to marriage. As her world changes forever, Katherine must navigate into a world filled with secrets and scoundrels. It is not immediately clear what her Uncle really wants from her. She was always told that the Duke hated her family, so when he makes her look ridiculous in front of the City by letting her dress like a boy and swing a sword, Katherine is determined not to let him ruin her future.
