When Lady Cordelia, a brilliant mathematician, and her brother, Lord Woodbridge, disappear from London, rumors swirl concerning fraudulent bank loans and a secret consortium engaged in an illicit - and highly profitable - trading scheme that threatens the entire British economy. The incriminating evidence mounts, but for Charlotte and Wrexford, it's a question of loyalty and friendship. And so they begin a new investigation to clear the siblings' names, uncover their whereabouts, and unravel the truth behind the whispers.
As they delve into the murky world of banking and international arbitrage, Charlotte and Wrexford also struggle to navigate their increasingly complex feelings for each other. But the clock is ticking - a cunning mastermind has emerged...along with some unexpected allies - and Charlotte and Wrexford must race to prevent disasters both economic and personal as they are forced into a dangerous match of wits in an attempt to beat the enemy at his own game.
Lady Cordelia befriended our duo in the previous novel, and they have become friends. Rumors of fraudulent bank loans and stolen secrets that could threaten the British empire bring us a suspenseful mystery. When Lady Cordelia and Lord Woodbridge, her brother, go missing, they stand accused of the crimes. Of course Wrexford & Sloane must investigate.
What a clever tale Penrose has crafted. I was pulled in from the very beginning as the mystery hooked me. Of course, I enjoy spending time with this couple and their circle of allies, wards, and servants.
The stakes were high and danger lurked around every corner with each clue they unraveled. This forced the two to spend more time with each other, and it was delicious. The romance sees some developments that left me giddy, despite knowing it was inevitable. Their relationship feels genuine and they are well suited. The Weasels aided and have stolen my heart. It’s the characters that make this series for me.
Despite the intense mystery, there were moments that made me laugh and I dare say I am eager to continue the series. I scooped up the rest of the series using Kindle Unlimited to buy the audiobooks at a reduced price.
James Cameron Stewart narrates the series and does a splendid job of giving voice to each of the characters. He perfectly captures their personalities, mannerisms and the bond between them. I highly recommend listening.
