Description
Nothing is simple when you're thirty-fifth in line for the British crown, least of all marriage. But with love on their side, and plans to elope, Lady Georgiana Rannoch and her beau, Darcy O'Mara, hope to bypass a few royal rules. Their plans are thwarted when they learn that Georgie's future father-in-law has been arrested for the murder of a wealthy American. With the elopement postponed, they head for Ireland where Darcy's father insists he's innocent, and it's up to Georgie and Darcy to prove it - for better or worse.

ReviewsPraise for the Royal Spyness Mysteries "Wonderful characters...A delight."-#1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris "An insightful blend of old-fashioned whodunnit, clever satire and drawing room comedy of errors."-New York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Winspear "Brilliant...This is so much more than a murder mystery. It's part love story, part social commentary, part fun and part downright terrifying. And completely riveting."-#1 New York Times bestselling author Louise Penny "The perfect fix between seasons for Downton Abbey addicts."-New York Times bestselling author Deborah Crombie "Fans of P.G. Wodehouse looking for laughs mingled with some amateur sleuthing will be quite pleased."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Georgie's high spirits and the author's frothy prose are utterly captivating."-The Denver Post "A smashing romp."-Booklist (starred review)
