Publisher's Summary

When Miss Mary Bennet is assigned to London for the Season, extravagant balls and eligible men are the least of her worries. A government messenger has been murdered and suspicion falls on the Radicals, who may be destabilizing the government in order to compel England down the bloody path of the French Revolution.

Working with her fellow spies, Mr. William Stanley and Miss Fanny Cramer, Mary must investigate without raising the suspicions of her family, rescue her friend Miss Georgiana Darcy from a suitor scandal, and solve the mystery before anyone else is harmed - all without being discovered, lest she be exiled back to the countryside. This is the perfect job for a woman who exists in the background. Can Mary prove herself, or will this assignment be her last?

Great continuation of the series!

I enjoyed this continuation of Mary Bennet's spy work, this time in London. The change of scenery was nice and we got to see her interactions with her family (Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth in particular). The author includes a lot of real-life events and structures the story around those.

Some parts I found stretched what I found believable - such as Mary randomly talking to parliamentary men in London in 1814 - but I was willing to get past this and just enjoy the story.

It irked me that she kept trying to hide things from her family. I felt those parts dragged on a bit and made Mr. Darcy seem like the bad guy.

Overall, though, it's a really good story and lots of exciting things happen that made me want to listen all the time.
