When night fell on the lawless streets of old San Francisco, Matthew Covington--seemingly just another wealthy society idler--became the mysterious crime-fighter known as the Black Bandit. Nothing could tempt him to reveal his secret identity, until the English gentleman met Georgia Waterhouse, whose pseudonymous newspaper accounts had made his daring exploits famous. He was coming to care deeply for this woman, who shared his passionate devotion to justice--and the Lord--but she could never know he was her shadow-shrouded hero.

In 1890 San Francisco, wealthy English hero Matthew Covington is in the city on business, but he likes to work out privately with his whip and sword at night. When he sees a young boy being harassed by bullies he comes to the rescue, chasing the bullies away, but he keeps himself in darkness when he does it. The young boy tells his friends and acquaintances about his adventure and the bandit who rescued him, but most people really don't believe his story. Heroine Georgia Waterhouse (who works at the Grace House Mission in the poor area of San Francisco---South of the Slot) writes about it in her brother's newspaper. Soon afterwards, the people of San Francisco are all talking about the "Black Bandit" and if he is real or a fictitious story made up by the newspaper. When Matthew hears about (and sees) the poor conditions in the area and the work that Grace House is doing he decides to secretly help out as the "Black Bandit". The people are starting to believe that the "Black Bandit" is real, and it is giving hope to the poor area. Matthew is also falling for pretty and caring Grace...

I really enjoyed this charming, amusing, and fun romance. I liked the daring and caring hero Matthew and all the good he was doing. I also liked heroine Georgia, who was very sweet and kindhearted. I liked how the people all became hopeful and it brought the community together. I thought Matthew and Georgia made a lovely couple.

This was a very entertaining and heartwarming read. ( )

I disliked this book because it felt like it went on and on and on. I read this book because of the title.

For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to
face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully
 even as also I was fully known. But now abideth
 faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of
                    these is love.
                      ---1 Corinthians 13:12-13

Acknowledgment

I was blessed to have loads of great help on this book, and any blame for historical errors you find should lay squarely on my own shoulders, ot with any of my fine sources. Eileen Keremitsis lent tireless and creative help in general research and fact finding. Howard Mutz and Gena Egelston dug up hotel details, while the Golden Gate Hotel served as my home away from home in San Francisco. Andrew John Conway taught me to wield a whip and made valuable book recommendations. It's a given that I'd be sunk without the ongoing support of my family, my agent Karen Solem, my editor Krista Stroever, and the wonderfully supportive ranks of Windy City RWA, Chicago North RWA, and the local and national branches of American Christian Fiction Writers. As always, the highest credit goes to my God, who continues to take me on the most amazing journey of all.
