I love you

Epigraph

Never tell a secret, never tell a lie

If you break a promise you will surely die

Say your prayers at bedtime, God forgive your sin

Then when you get to heaven the angels let you in

A Word About Our Covers

The Promise

The Promise

Madame Burova was a woman who knew where the bodies were buried. She had spent a lifetime keeping other people’s secrets and her silence had come at a price. Some revelations – forbidden affairs and minor indiscretions – had been easy enough to bear. Like feathers on the wind. But others, dark and disturbing, had pricked her conscience and been a burden on her soul. She had seen the lovers and the liars, the angels and the devils, the dreamers and the fools. Her cards had unmasked them all and her cards never lied. Madame Burova knew the killer, the victim and the murder weapon.
