Lady Trent's sleuthing skills are put to the test in a Victorian mystery about mischief, murder, and a lost heir. With the aid of her partner Dylan Tremayne, Lady Serafina Trent aims to help her neighbors--the Haydens--determine who the true heir is to their sizable estate. After some investigating, she shocks the Haydens when she reveals that the child they believed had died at birth is actually alive and living as a criminal in London's worst slum. Then the Hayden's butler is murdered and the stakes are dangerously raised. Lady Serafina must employ her famous scientific reasoning to help her discover answers before foul play strikes again--though her beloved reason fails to explain her growing attraction to Dylan . . . Enjoy Victorian England through the eyes of Christian Fiction's most beloved author.
All I can say is I loved it. I wish there were a million of these kinds of books around.
Good book, easy read, clever mystery

I enjoyed the book. I like to read stories that are set in the 19th century. One can learn a little about the life style of that period. The book moves fairly quickly. It's an easy read. The mystery was cleverly done. The characters become friends. I think anyone would enjoy this book. It's typical Gilbert Morris material.
Excellent mystery

I really enjoyed this book. I liked the setting and the characters. The style seems a little different than some of his other books. God is real in some of the people's lives and some do not follow him, the way it is in real life.
