A period mystery, set in late Victorian times. Lady Emily marries, and her new husband hies off to Africa where he dies. Left a widow, in control of her own money and her own decisions, she dives into life, where she discovers that perhaps her husband was not a bit as she believed him to be, and that the men she is attracted to, are possibly villains.
I really enjoyed this book until about midway through when the main character suddenly lost her mind. I understand it was a plot device, but after seeing a very bright and intelligent woman in that character, her sudden departure into romantic idiocy irritated me no end. Still, I enjoyed the book regardless and will probably read at least one more of the series.
