Forty-two-year-old Lady Augusta "Gus" Colebrook is tired of the mundane, so she enlists her sister Julia to save their friend's goddaughter from an abusive husband. However, the journey is interrupted when their carriage gets hijacked by Lord Evan Belford, a charming "criminal" who was charged with a murder. This catches Gus's attention—amidst their blood-pumping adventures, Gus is convinced Lord Evan is innocent, and she's going to prove it. Witty and righteously feminist, this Regency-era historical mystery is a blast!
