Yes it's a story about a woman who escapes an abusive husband and hides out in a small English Village. Her world changes when she goes to the aid of a young man accidentally shot and comes under the scrutiny of his brother, the Earl of Beaulieu, a man who likes puzzles and she's definitely one. However his questions may lead her problems back to her.
It's an interesting story, the author doesn't shy away from the problems the character has with her abusive husband. There are a few telling moments where Beaulieu realises that the woman he's falling for is afraid of him that just make it quite interesting.
Overall not a bad read, it does deal well with a gritty subject and doesn't gloss over some of the nitty gritty and the pain.
