The year is 1859. In this sequel to Point of the Circle, readers are catapulted into suspense filled pages. The author once again introduces you to Joaquin and Rue. In Spain where family positions and title are almost a form of worship, there are those who will and have done anything to keep or acquire the persona of perfection. In a twist of fate, old friends unite, enemies are recognized, and the pursuit for justice is resurrected; revenge is only a touch away. All manner of business is on the minds of the characters; how to obtain more without giving away too much, how to cheat and not get caught, and if caught how to escape. As greed, secrets, and deception prevail; romance hangs in the air like grapes on the vine. However, as in justice, revenge, and business, there are those who win and those who lose. How much is won or lost depends on the depth that each person is willing to go.
