Evan Marchman, the new Duke of Westphal, would happily return to his former bastard status for one more dangerous assignment with his childhood boon companions North, South and East--The Compass Club. Then Evan--"West" to his friends--encounters Ria in her frantic search and uncovers truths about the academy's board of governors that were never meant to be known.

Gabriel Whitney, Marquess Eastlyn (East to his friends), is tasked by the Crown with opening new trade with China. Calling upon his three boon companions: South, North, and West--The Compass Club--for aid, two things stand in East's way: The Society of Bishops, a group of men who were East's boyhood tormenters, and false rumors of his engagement to Lady Sophia Colley. When East arrives at Lady Sophia's doorstep to dispel the rumor, the last thing he expects is to be entranced by a woman who's lived beneath his notice. East proposes on the spot.
