The second book in the thrilling middle grade mystery series,
perfect for fans of Robin Steven's Murder Most Unladylike. Set in
eighteenth-century London, with all the fun and zest of Hamilton
and inspired by real Black British historical figures. Agents of
history. Partners in Mystery. Sisters in solving crime.
Twelve-year-olds Lizzie Sancho and Dido Belle are from different
worlds - Lizzie lives in Westminster in her dad's tea shop, while
Belle is an heiress being brought up by her aunt and uncle at grand
Kenwood House - but they both share a love of solving mysteries.
And after saving Lizzie's father from attempted murder surely there
is no threat too dangerous for the detective duo? It's the summer
of 1777, the night of the grand unveiling of the Sancho-Mansfields
family portrait - a groundbreaking step towards representing
friendship, family, and freedom. But soon enough things take a
chaotic turn - the painting has been stolen! This theft is only the
start, revealing a much bigger, more terrifying secret that haunts
the cobbled streets of London. A conspiracy is underway, one that
has links to the kidnapping of Lizzie's friend Mercury, and leads
all the way to a series of attempted poisonings, all at the hands
of an ominous organisation pulling the strings from the shadows.
These villains lurk everywhere, even in the very homes they call
safe. And their desire for power is only growing. When anyone could
be involved in this Brotherhood of Masters, who can Lizzie and
Belle trust? Once again it is up to the two girls to unveil the
truth and put an end to the corruption that plagues the city.
