"The talk of Edwardian society, strong-willed American ex-pat Stella Kendrick and her betrothed, Viscount "Lyndy" Lyndhurst, before they can walk down the aisle, must solve two very different crimes and identify a killer hiding among the elite wedding guests"-- Provided by publisher
1905. With her wedding to Viscount Lyndy Lyndhurst just days away, American ex-pat Stella Kendrick is the talk of Edwardian society. Between ornate bridal gown fittings and meetings with Lyndy's distant relatives, Stella is beginning to feel like a respected aristocrat. Then an anonymous gift and the return of her overbearing father cast a shadow over the festivities. Then a daytrip to Southampton ends with a stranger getting trampled by a horse-drawn cab, and a murder implicates one of Lyndy's family members. As Stella and Lyndy try to connect two very different crimes, catching the culprit may prove as impossible as closing the class divide. -- adapted from jacket
