Following the suspicious death of her father, the Earl of Morton, and the discovery that she and her much younger sister have been left without income or home, Lady Caroline takes a post as a lady's companion to wealthy widow Mrs. Matilda (Matty) Frogerton.
Eager to introduce herself and her rather wild daughter to the ton, Mrs. Frogerton is pleased when they are invited by Caroline's aunt, Lady Eleanor Greenwood, to a house party in the countryside. For her part, Caroline is eager to see her little sister, who now lives with their aunt. But all is not well at the Greenwood estate . . .
For one thing, Lady Caroline's former fiancé, Lord Francis Chatham, is a guest and refuses to speak to her. Worse, after a series of troubling harassments of the staff, an elderly family member is found fatally stabbed by a knitting needle. . . . As Caroline and an unexpected ally—Mrs. Frogerton—attempt to solve the chilling crime, they discover bizarre clues in the nursery as to who will be next. But they must make haste, for this heartless killer is engaged in anything but child's play . . .]]>https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9125182https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9125182Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://freeport.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/9125182980EBOOKA Riveting Victorian Mysteryenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781496723307/MC.GIF&client=lakep&type=xw12&oclc=https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5281551https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5281551Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMThttps://freeport.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5281551147BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781496740649/MC.GIF&client=lakep&type=xw12&oclc=https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5131094https://freeport.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S147C5131094Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMThttps://freeport.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5131094147BKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781496740618/MC.GIF&client=lakep&type=xw12&oclc=Set against the timelessly intriguing backdrop of 1830s high-society London, this delightful historical mystery series features Miss Caroline Morton, daughter of a disgraced earl, now gainfully employed as a lady's companion—along with a sideline in sleuthing . . .
Lady Caroline is happy to be back amid the swirl of London society, guiding her employer's daughter, Dorothy Frogerton, through her first Season. Declared "an original" by a patron of the exclusive social club, Almack's, Dorothy is sifting through potential suitors. Mrs. Frogerton, meanwhile, finds her own diversions, including spiritualist gatherings at the home of Madam Lavinia, and begs Caroline to come along.
Caroline is skeptical of Madam's antics and faux French accent—until she slips a note into Caroline's hand, which contains intimate family knowledge. Even as Caroline tries to discern whether the spiritualist's powers are real, a much darker mystery presents itself: Madam Lavinia is found lifeless in her chair, a half-empty glass of port at her elbow. In her desk is a note addressed to Caroline, entreating her to find her murderer.
Caroline needs no psychic abilities to determine a motive, for it seems that Madam was blackmailing clients and has left a trail of aggrieved aristocrats behind. But as Caroline and Mrs. Frogerton investigate further, they find other suspects, and deceptions, some very close to home. Now Caroline must keep all her wits about her if she is to stop others from joining Madam Lavinia in the afterlife . . .
