From New York Times bestselling author Tasha Alexander comes the
second Lady Emily mystery set in Victorian England, meticulously
researched and with a twisty plot that involves an audacious cat
burglar and a brewing scandal for Lady Emily . . . London's social
season is in full swing, and the aristocracy can't stop whispering
about a certain gentleman who claims to be the direct descendant of
Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Drawing rooms, boudoirs and
ballrooms are also abuzz with the latest news of an audacious cat
burglar who has been making off with precious items that once
belonged to the ill-fated queen. But light gossip turns serious
when the owner of one of the pilfered treasures is murdered and the
thief develops a twisted obsession with Lady Emily Ashton. It takes
all of Lady Emily's wit and perseverance to unmask her stalker and
ferret out the murderer, all while faced with a brewing scandal
that threatens both her reputation and her romance with the dashing
Colin Hargreaves. Praise for Tasha Alexander 'Historical mystery at
its best. Ms. Alexander has delivered an amazing sequel to her
debut novel' Fresh Fiction 'Immediately engrossing and thoroughly
entertaining... Alexander writes with a fullness and richness that
leaves the reader extremely satisfied' Crimespree 'Sometimes
touching, sometimes funny and always absorbing, this Victorian-era
mystery hits all the right notes' Romantic Times 'The vivacious and
well-read Emily is back in rare form... Alexander has vividly
captured Victorian mores, and the society intrigues are
fascinating' The Tennessean 'Enchanting... Alexander keeps readers
guessing until the very end' Publishers Weekly 'Tasha Alexander is
one to watch - and read... despite her cliffhanger climaxes and
witty repartee, there's a depth of sensitivity that sets her apart'
