Is she really just a hapless barmaid, or is she another skilled adversary out to put her dagger through Yancy's unsuspecting ribs?

Frolic through a nocturnal frenzy of action and confusion with special agent Yancy DeClancy as he tries to unravel the confusing trail of intrigue leading from the failed attempt to assassinate the Duke to an army of knives aimed at his own heart.
