Rabbit Heart by Colleen Hitchcock is categorized as a suspense novel. And she seems to have more books to follow. I have never heard of her… book sound different
From the Book Jacket
A wildly original and sexy debut novel set in Victorian England, Rabbit Heart tells the story of a French temptress who literally loves men to death.
Nicollette Caron is every man’s ideal mistress. Pity, then, that all of her lovers die trying to satisfy her insatiable appetite. Forced to flee town after town so that no one will discover her terrible secret, Nicollette is haunted by the ghosts of her dead lovers as England’s top crime inspector circles ever closer.
Renowned for his tenacity, handsome detective Jackson Lang will stop at nothing to prove that Nicollette is a murderess. Powerful Lord Baston is equally determined . . . to make Nicollette his mistress despite her breathless warnings. A fortuneteller foresees that only one man is strong enough to save Nicollette. But how will she know which man to trust–until it is too late?
Rich in detail and crackling with suspense, Rabbit Heart is a gripping novel of passion and intrigue–and a haunting journey to another era.
