Petronella Saves Several More
Sixteen-year-old Petronella is once more thrown into adventure as she uncovers a plot to assassinate King Edward and a Russian archduke. With the help of the dashing and swoon-worthy Sir James Sinclair, her best friend Lady Jane Sinclair, and her beloved Uncle Augustus T. Percival, Petronella saves several more people from a certain and horrible death.
Mere weeks after saving nearly everyone in England, Petronella is anticipating a quiet trip to Brighton to see her friends Jane and James. However, matters are complicated when Uncle Augustus falls in love with a Russian countess, the Royal Entomological Society holds an international convention full of insect exhibits to which Uncle insists on going, James becomes unwillingly engaged, and Petronella finds herself in the middle of a most unladylike motorcar chase.
Fans of Petronella Saves Nearly Everyone will be delighted with Petronella's new romp through Edwardian England, and anyone who has not met Petronella yet is in store for a real treat.
