A Brush with Death

A dying heiress.
The haunting threat of looming madness.
And a Ripper stalking the London streets.

Whomever dares to marry Isabel Vanderton will be rich, that much is clear. The problem is, Isabel isn't interested in marrying. She isn't really interested in dying either, but Death is impatient.

He has haunted Isabel for years-her most persistent suitor-and now, he is bent on claiming what is rightfully his. Determined, Death sets out on a careful game of seduction that threatens Isabel's very sanity. She will succumb to him, or she will suffer the consequences.

As Isabel bargains desperately for her very soul, tales of Jack-the-Ripper plague all of London. The longer she delays, the closer she comes to losing everything and everyone she holds dear.

Is a life in darkness better than no life at all?

It is time for Isabel to make her choice.
