On the English Channel in the 18th century, a luxury sailing ship was carrying a young earl's widow towards an unknown fate.
Thalia de Brissac, on the surface, is a French aristocratic lady who has just lost her husband, but in fact she is a time traveler with memories of past lives and a mysterious system. The moment she sets foot on British soil, a chess game about wealth, power and survival quietly unfolds.
Queen Mary's personal friend. A mansion in Mayfair. The lord and earl met him personally. A top personal tailor custom-made new clothes for her.
Everyone thought she was just a poor widow in need of protection.
But they don't know what kind of secrets this lady hides under her calm veil.
When the Bennet family comes from the countryside to reunite, when old grudges surface, and when the system whispers in the ear that danger is coming——
What choice will Thalia make?
In 18th-century London, it was hard to be a smart woman.
And to be a countess with a system and secrets...
This is where the game really begins.
