Continuing the Edwardian Mystery series we find Lady Rose Summer striking out as an independent lady, hoping to support herself, but her new life isn’t quite as exciting as she hoped for. Not to worry, old acquaintance Captain Harry Cathcart soon comes along with a murder investigation he needs her help with. A good fun crime caper.
