Description
In Victorian London, a seemingly proper companion with a hidden past is drawn into a dangerous web of crime, blackmail, and paranormal intrigue—where a pistol can be as necessary as a smile. When an enigmatic Crown investigator named Joshua Gage crosses her path, their uneasy alliance sparks questions about who Beatrice Lockwood really is, and what secrets she may be carrying from the night a prominent death rocked the Academy of the Occult. As mesmerism, fraud, and spectral rumors collide, both must navigate a trail of bodies and deception that tightens toward a single, chilling threat. Blending romantic suspense with Amanda Quick’s signature flair for period detail and sly, character-driven wit, this second Ladies of Lantern Street adventure explores identity, belief, and the thin line between performance and power.
