When a day at the races reveals sabotage and subterfuge, Elizabeth Miles must use every ounce of her craftiness to even the score in this all-new Counterfeit Lady novel from USA Today bestselling author Victoria Thompson. .. . .
With the ever-honest Gideon at her side, she enlists those closest to her to come up with a scheme that will either ensure young Irene and Cal a first-place finish or have disastrous consequences.
Elizabeth knows that to help Irene and Cal, she is going to need some help in creating the quintessential con.
It turns out that Sebastian Nolan has more than a few skeletons in his closet and someone is out to get their long-sought-after revenge.
When Cal takes a terrible tumble, injuring both himself and Irene\'s beloved Trench, Elizabeth and Gideon learn that the mishap was not simply bad luck--the horse and rider are victims of sabotage.
But she also knows that Irene\'s father would never allow his only daughter to marry a jockey.
Elizabeth soon realizes there is more than just a working relationship between Irene and Cal.
Irene Nolan seems more interested in horses than husbands, and she jumps at the chance to show Elizabeth her horse, Trench, and introduce her to his rider, Cal Regan.
Her con artist family has made a lot of money at racetracks, although not from betting on the horses, and she enjoys the excitement of the track.
Elizabeth is not exactly the society girl Nolan believes her to be, but she is eager to attend the races.
He is also hoping to find her a rich potential suitor.
Nolan is anxious for Gideon and Elizabeth to help his daughter, Irene, acquire a bit of polish, now that his venture into thoroughbred racing has allowed them entry into society.
Wealthy but uncouth Sebastian Nolan has invited his lawyer, Gideon Bates, and his lovely new wife, Elizabeth, to attend the famous Belmont Stakes.
