Harbor of Lies: A Boston Heist. A Stolen Manifest. A Trap Set in Shadows (The Ravenshaw Chronicles Book 2)

Book Two of The Ravenshaw Chronicles. Boston, 1722. The harbor runs on tar, tide, and trust—until “respectable” losses begin happening with uncanny precision. Elizabeth Fairchild arrives quietly from the south carrying fragments of proof and a vow to stop Edmund Ravenshaw, the polished predator who steals like a merchant and vanishes like a ghost. Edmund has reinvented himself as a gentleman agent, trading in manifests, favors, and borrowed names; his hands stay clean while other men do the lifting. To catch him, Elizabeth must fight on his chosen battlefield: ledgers, seals, arrival windows, and the whispered economy of docks and taverns. A powerful cousin bankrolls the hunt—carefully, for reputation’s sake—while an infamous sailor’s shadow circles just beyond paper’s reach. As seduction and commerce intertwine in drawing rooms and countinghouses, Elizabeth learns a brutal truth: in a city built on credit, a lie can sail farther than any ship, and the cost of exposing a thief may be paid in blood.
