A Perilous Undertaking by Deanna Raybourn
4.0
This is the second book in the Veronica Speedwell series.
Set in London, 1887. “At the Curiosity Club, a ladies-only establishment for daring and intrepid women, Speedwell meets the Lady Sundridge, who begs her to take on an impossible task—saving society art patron Miles Ramsforth from execution. Ramsforth, accused of the brutal murder of his mistress, Artemisia, will face the hangman’s noose in a week’s time if the real killer is not found.”
Veronica and her “sidekick”, Stoker, are on the case! I can’t get enough of Raybourn’s Victorian mysteries.
