When Arthur Livingston arrives out of the blue at the Bleecker Street Inquiry Agency, anxious to hire the agency to seek out a missing heiress, Eunice Holbrooke realizes her past has finally caught up with her. Having fled from the scene of her grandfather's murder seven years before, Eunice is a lady with secrets--the most important that she is the missing heiress Arthur is seeking. She has no intention of allowing him to learn she's been disguising herself, especially when she has reason to believe Arthur could hold her responsible for her grandfather's death. In order to avoid Arthur and conceal her real identity, Eunice takes on another case that requires her to go deep undercover. With secrets from the past--and Arthur--appearing wherever she looks, she wonders how she will ever uncover the truth behind her grandfather's murder. Will what she discovers set Eunice free or place her in peril's way?
Jen Turano's books are always fun, but the Bleeker Street Inquiry Agency has made room for all sorts of zany adventures. Eunice has always been a fascinating character (one we knew had secrets--why else would she hide behind layers of mourning veils?), so it was delightful to discover her story. From the very first page, where it introduces our hero as the man Eunice shot the last time she saw him, it was a fun romp as Eunice reconciles with her past and paves the way for her future.
Thank you Bethany House and NetGalley for the complimentary e-book. I was not required to write a positive review, and all opinions are my own.
