The At-Your-Beck Felicity Conveyor: a Novel of Sin & Retribution

Dolly Gray Landon

WINNER OF THE LITERARY TITAN BOOK AWARD

A tense, simmering tale of revenge that builds up to a thrilling, dramatic, and powerful denouement

Although members of the Dreadmiller family are unanimously beloved for their charitable acts of kindness and good works in the community, they are, at the same time, not the kind of people anyone in their right mind would ever want to mess with. Just because they're nice doesn't mean they're stupid.

Ms. Yvette Cartier, a beautiful wealthy young heiress, deludes herself into believing the world is her oyster and once she makes the critical fumble of trespassing upon the trust and goodwill of the Dreadmillers, to the point where the saint-like sufferance of the family's chief patriarch reaches its breaking threshold, she finds herself in a pretty pickle. And, hoo boy, is she in for a ride!
