The Byron Conspiracy [EPUB ebook] 

Enter the hushed world of antiquarian books, where the scent of aged paper and whispered histories conceal deadly secrets. Elias Thorne, a rare book dealer with an uncanny eye for forgery, finds his quiet London bookshop thrust into a maelstrom of intrigue when a collection of Lord Byron’s lost love letters arrives on his doorstep.  Hidden within their passionate prose lies a coded message, hinting at a modern-day assassination plot.
Drawn into a dangerous labyrinth, Elias’s investigation intertwines with the enigmatic Isabella Rossi, a captivating book collector whose knowledge of Byron both aids and unsettles him.  Their shared passion for literary treasures ignites a spark, but is Isabella a pawn in a deadly game, or the mastermind behind it all?
From the bustling streets of London to the sun-drenched boulevards of Paris, Elias traces a network of rare book smugglers and shadowy figures who deal in forbidden knowledge.  The discovery of a lost Byron play, rumored to contain explosive political commentary, adds another layer to the conspiracy. Could the assassination plot be a smokescreen, designed to conceal a far more sinister objective?
As Elias and Isabella’s connection deepens, every stolen glance, every shared laugh, becomes fraught with uncertainty. Elias struggles to reconcile his burgeoning feelings with the mounting evidence that suggests Isabella’s involvement in the unfolding plot.  Could he be falling in love with the enemy?
With the help of Grace Holmes, a brilliant cryptographer and old friend, Elias unravels the layers of code, revealing a narrative of political intrigue and long-held grudges that span centuries.  They uncover a clandestine organization known as the Scriptorium, guardians of forbidden knowledge, rumored to employ literary assassins to silence those who threaten their secrets.
The conspiracy takes on a new, more sinister dimension as Elias realizes he’s caught in a battle for knowledge itself, a battle with stakes far higher than he could have imagined.  He discovers a hidden library, located beneath a historic London landmark, its entrance concealed behind a secret passage known only to a select few.
As the unveiling of the library approaches, Elias must confront Isabella, demanding answers.  Her confession reveals a heartbreaking truth and forces them both to make impossible choices.  Amidst the glittering world of a rare book auction, the climax unfolds.  Secrets are exposed, loyalties are tested, and the future of forbidden knowledge hangs in the balance. In a heart-stopping confrontation, Elias and Isabella must choose their allegiances, their love for each other tested against the backdrop of a conspiracy that threatens to rewrite history.
