Londinium, 1892 Britannia has been part of the Roman Empire for over two thousand years, but all is not well within the Empire. Rosanna Merryweather has been hunting for her missing father and brother; with no success. Fearing she is at a dead end, and with nowhere left to turn, a man she has never met before crashes into her life. His tales of a secret agency sound far fetched, but the fact her father is the head of this agency leaves her astounded. The enigmatic Agent Cyprian leads Rosanna into a new, strange life: one filled with danger, intrigue and espionage. Rosanna and 'Duke' Cyprian set out to find her father and brother and on their hunt they find themselves irresistibly drawn to each other, awakening feelings she didn't think possible.
