In Georgian England, beautiful Marigold Brown reinvents herself as the mysterious Marchesa Marigelda and becomes the fascination of fashionable London society. Her elegant appearance hides the truth: she has little money and is attempting an audacious deception.
But Marigold has another identity as well—Madam Vixen, a daring highwaywoman riding the dangerous roads of the Welsh countryside. Romance, deception, adventure, and mistaken identities collide as Marigold navigates aristocratic society and a far more dangerous outlaw world.
