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.
The future's not so rosy for Lady Rose Summer ...Longing for a life of emancipation, Lady Rose Summer has abandoned the comforts of her parent's house to become self supporting. But life as a working woman isn't quite as liberating as Rose has imagined - fortunately for her, though, her drudgery comes to an end when old acquaintance Freddy Pomfret is murdered and her help - and upper class connections - are required by amateur sleuth Captain Harry Cathcart. So as Rose and Harry prepare to take on the usual Edwardian social rounds, little do they expect to uncover a devious blackmail plot and an unexpected killer.
