In the Lion's Den

London 1889. For James Falconer, who grew up as a barrow boy on a Camden market, Victorian London is a city of opportunity. As James works his way up Henry Malvern's trading company in Piccadilly, a fierce rivalry develops with Henry's daughter and heir Alexis, who is locked in grief of her own - but their animosity masks a powerful attraction. Embarking on a love affair with the daughter of Russian émigrés, James's life begins to transform. But as treachery and danger threaten, a secret comes to light that will change his life forever. James must decide where his future lies - with Henry Malvern or following his own dream.
