Traitor

Lady Wynwood’s Spies #8

by Camille Elliot

Pride and Prejudice meets Impossible

Part eight in a Christian Regency suspense series with slow-burn romance and a supernatural twist

When the enemy is within, who can you trust?

Solomon Drydale has spent years navigating the dangerous currents of espionage and war, and he has never disobeyed orders—until now. After making a risky deal with Apothecary Jack to save one of his team, Sol and his agents wait for the consequences of their insubordination.

But when a shocking assassination throws the Ramparts into turmoil, their own agency turns on them with lethal intent.

Now fugitives, the team is scattered and desperate. From the refined gentlemen's clubs of London to its darkest alleys, the team must use every ounce of their skill to evade capture.

The lines between friend and foe blur, and Sol must uncover the a conspiracy reaching into the heart of the Ramparts, and a traitor who knows every one of their secrets—including his.

PLEASE Like the novels published in Jane Austen’s time, this is a novel in multiple parts, projected to be 12 volumes. Each volume has a completed story arc, but this is NOT a stand-alone novel and the story ends on a cliffhanger.

346 pages, Kindle Edition

We're back into the swing of things after the previous book's brief intermission in the country. I very much enjoyed the plot twists in this one and look forward to the next! The new characters from the previous book did not take part in this one (nor did Isabella and Thorn), so presumably they will show up again in a later installment with important intelligence.

Also, there's been a character that has been bugging me for a while now (in terms of trustworthiness), and the epilogue finally reveals why! It makes so much sense!

Traitor by Camille Elliot
Lady Wynwood’s Spies Volume Eight
These stories are so exciting. Two of the characters are now facing certain death. Once you get the Root, there seems to be no way to get off of it without a death sentence. The characters don’t choose it; the Citadel and/or crazy Jack Dix forces it on them.
Sol Drydale has fellow agents from Rampart coming after him. He can’t believe his boss, Sir Derrick Bayberry, would order that. He wouldn’t. But our heroes don’t know that Sir Derrick was murdered.
Another page-turning, run-for-your-life story as Phoebe, Keirah, Michael, Sol, Laura, and many others try to find a cure for those who’ve been given the Root, find safety, and figure out who they can trust—and who they can’t. The lines get blurred in this story.

Camille Elliot (aka Camy Tang) ratched up the newest book in the Lady Wynwood's spies series another notch. I definitely could not put it down and read it within 24 hours. The major characters are all involved one again, but this time it is difficult to tell the difference between friend and foe. The fast paced action makes the reader wonder who has turned and who is still helping the Ramparts discover what is taking place with the illegal (may kill you) medicines. Set in the Regency era in England, Elliot does a wonderful job of bring this time period to life. I hope she will soon have Volume 9 released to continue this story as the team has scattered to try and keep safe.

Number eight in this series and boy, was this one full of action.

Sol Drydale and his team of agents were on the run from the Ramparts, a secret government agency they all worked for. He had disobeyed orders to save one of his team members, someone very dear to him. Now his agency seems to have turned on him and are hunting the lot of them.

There never seemed to be a down moment. Action, fighting, running, disguising, trying to figure out who they could trust, all the while knowing there was a traitor in their midst.

Whew! Very good.

Best of all, several members who have been doubtful in the past have decided there just might be something to prayer after all.

Enthralling

This series just keeps getting better with twists and turns that you don’t see coming. The action builds up to the cliffhanger which I was not expecting. Can’t wait for the next book to come out to see what happens to everyone. Love this series especially Michael and Phoebe and a lovely scene they have together despite the dire straits they find themselves in.

While I really enjoyed the premise, I think the series could have been tightened up a lot and made into fewer books.
Really nothing has advanced in the mystery or romantic tension since the first few books.

I can’t anymore 😅 it’s a 12 part series and I just don’t care to see how it ends 🤷🏼‍♀️
