A Regency Adventure

Prequel to the Lady Wynwood's Spies series

A mysterious thief has been committing daring heists and stealing rare, exquisite gemstones during the time their owners are throwing grand parties for the Season. Mr. Solomon Drydale, a clandestine agent for the Crown, is baffled because the thefts bear the mark of a former agent whom he mentored.

Sol is tasked with finding the agent, Mr. Stewart Allinton, who is attending a birthday celebration at a country manor house, but Sol is determined to speak to Allinton first before bringing him in.

However, there is more at stake than a few gemstones, and with the help of his friend, Lady Wynwood, he discovers that the few acts of larceny may be connected to high treason ...

This is a stand-alone story that occurs after The Spinster's Christmas and before Lady Wynwood's Spies, volume 1: Archer.
