Review: Betrayer

Betrayer Betrayer by Camille Elliot
My rating: 💛💛💛💛

What a great new installment to this historical regency serial. Due to unforeseen health issues, readers had to wait quit a long time to see what is happening in this crazy regency world.

I enjoyed my time back with Lady Lynwood, Phoebe, Uncle Sol, and the spies. The historical settings are very well written, and the added poison element is adds a unique and speculative feel.

There was character growth, delving deeper in characters' past, danger, plans to execute and a betrayal no one was expecting, which ended this book on a Cliffhanger and making readers wanting the next installment now! And luckily per communication from the author, should be within a month after the release of Betrayer.

Each book in this series ends in a cliffhanger, so you need to read each book in order. The first book Archer (Lady Wynwood’s Spies #1) by Camille Elliot is currently $0.99 if you want to get into this series.

*I received a complimentary copy from the author. All opinions expressed are my own.*

About the book:


A Christian Historical Adventure set in Regency England with romance and a supernatural twist
Part four in an epic-length serial novel

Beleaguered spies

Lady Wynwood’s team of spies are trying to heal from the physical and mental wounds recently dealt to them. However, their investigation into Apothecary Jack’s mysterious group has turned up only a few strange, disjointed clues, and the dangerous Root elixir continues to circulate in the London underbelly. It is only a matter of time before the Root is sold to Napoleon, which would give him overwhelming dominance in the war.

Sudden threats

Then Laura, Lady Wynwood, is unexpectedly attacked by a man she had trusted. Although Phoebe and her household staff manage to protect her, her life is now in danger and she must go into hiding.

Dangerous mysteries

Laura uncovers more secrets kept by her late husband that shed illumination on his enigmatic mistress, Bianca. In the meantime, the team follows the trail of Laura’s attacker, which might enable them to capture Apothecary Jack or his compatriot, the pale-eyed man.

All the while, they are unaware that the hunters have become the hunted.

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

  1. That's a good way for an author to keep readers coming back. To end on a cliff hanger
