![]() We pick up not long after the end of book one in this installment-Stoker and Veronica have chartered an exploration that gets temporarily benched, as their benefactor has become injured in the most hilarious of ways. Never fear though, our dynamic duo is once again pulled in as amateur investigators in the implication of the wrong man for a murder amongst the members of high class society. Throughout this novel there are major spoilers from the first book that would not only make it impossible to go back and read the first as intended, but also cause you to be rather confused during this story. If you haven't read the first book in the series, A Curious Beginning yet, I would highly recommend beginning there. She has flawlessly created the most excellent of flawed characters and I cannot get enough of Stoker and Veronica. No really, I'm not a huge reader of historical fiction, but the fact that Deanna Raybourn has effortlessly blended aspects of the Victorian era with humor that transcends any decade has me completely hooked. I'm kicking myself for not giving this series a chance sooner. ![]()
