Preview Brides, Blackmail, and Murder
After solving the murder of Captain Rummings, Miss Victoria Parker is ready to resume her daily life in London. That sentiment is short-lived, however, when her friend Laura Grant is tasked to create a chapeau for the darling of the gossip columns. Miss Louisa Brooks is beautiful, rich, and engaged to a baron, and her patronage could make Laura’s shop the talk of the ton…And talk they do – when the bride-to-be collapses dead in the millinery.
When the constable places Laura at the top of his list of suspects, and with the real murderer on the loose, Victoria sets out to save her friend’s life and reputation. The task proves daunting, for the list of people who find the baron’s fiancée disagreeable is long, and rumors of her tumultuous past cast a shadow over the inquest. As James has been tasked by his brother to escort a young debutante around London, Vicky fears for the smile he now wears, leaving her to face her challenge alone. But as the clock draws closer to midnight, Vicky must not only save Laura, but also the new relationship with James – lest she risk both of those for whom she cares fleeing London, never to return.
