Description

The Pride of the Peacock is a Victorian gothic thriller that follows Jessica Clavering as she uncovers her family's dark secrets and her connection to a famously cursed gemstone. To secure her inheritance, Jessica agrees to a marriage of convenience, but her new husband's obsession with a famously cursed opal threatens to overshadow their relationship.

When Jessica and her husband inherit a fabled opal mine in Australia, she begins to unravel the mysteries of her family's past and the Green Flash, an exquisite and spellbinding opal. As she delves deeper into the opal's history, Jessica must navigate a complex web of desire, danger, and deception.

Blending historical romance with elements of the paranormal, this exhilarating tale is suited to readers of suspenseful stories with a touch of the supernatural.
