Summary: Sequel to A United Front In London during the spring of 1818, the close-knit group of men successfully routed a recent threat of extortion that particularly impacted Jo Everett and Daniel Walters. The after-effects might linger, but everyday life and other challenges keep all four couples occupied. Luc, the musician, and Harry, the actor, are heavily involved with a production at Drury Lane Theatre. Ben is helping Edward to counter his father’s edict that Edward quits London to take the reins of the family doctor’s practice in Wiltshire, leaving behind his lover and his medical research. Meanwhile, Percy is out of sorts at the prospect of his sister Eustacia’s upcoming wedding. As usual, his long-suffering lover Nathan bears the brunt of Percy’s mercurial moods. Life above the tailor’s shop at Tottenham Court Road has apparently returned to normal since the banishment of the corrupt constable, Jabeth Snell. But neither Jo nor Daniel has fully recovered from their close escape. Jo is trying to put on a brave face while Daniel’s old doubts have resurfaced, making him keep Jo at a distance. Can Jo and Daniel weather the storm and return to their previously happy existence? And will their friends rally round to help them reconcile?
