'Who can resist a smart, resourceful and independent Regency heroine? Prepare to fall head over heels' Good Housekeeping

1812 London

Up-and-coming novelist Jane Austen joins forces with London's most esteemed investigative duo – the infamous Dora Fitz-Pennington and disgraced son of a Viscount, Jacob Sandys – to solve the brutal murder of a French count and his opera singer wife. The killer took his own life immediately after the crime – but who sent him and why?

As they find themselves swept up in London's shadowy underworld, can Dora and Jacob uncover the truth without jeopardising national security, and with the promises they made to each other still intact? And will their unique love story end up in the pages of one of Austen’s novels?

'One of the best historical mysteries of the year. I loved it!' Vanessa Kelly, bestselling author of The Emma Knightley Mysteries

'A rip-roaring, helter-skelter adventure careening breathlessly through Regency society … an uproarious delight' Historical Novel Society
