“Revealed in Mist” places a unique twist on a plot that will be familiar to readers of historical romances. It is accurate to the time period and is written in a believable manner, although it begins in a rather strange place. This could be confusing for readers but evens out toward the middle of the story. Unfortunately Ms. Knight’s characters, although interesting in and of themselves, lack true depth. They tend to jumble together with so many players in the mix. Background information occasionally bogs down the manuscript but there are also several spots where the book seems to rush through scenes. The dialogue and narrative work well together and they do not disturb the plot or the flow of the book. A solid start to a new historical romance series!
