But upon her arrival at Kingsdowne Place, Georgie finds herself in a manor full of miscreants, none of whom are pleased with the discovery of her new ward. <p/>Then the duke announces he wants to choose his own heir and causes quite the hubbub. Somewhere along the way Jack's hunting knife ends up in the duke's back. Eyes fall, backs turn, and fingers point to the young heir. As if the rascal weren't enough of a handful, now he's suspected of murder. But while Jack may be wild, Georgie would bet the crown jewels it wasn't he who killed the duke...<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for the Royal Spyness Mysteries</b> <p/> "Wonderful characters...A delight."--#1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Charlaine Harris <p/> "An insightful blend of old-fashioned whodunnit, clever satire and drawing room comedy of errors."--<i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Jacqueline Winspear <p/> "Brilliant...This is so much more than a murder mystery.
