It’s an absolute bore to be a young lady in 1800s England.
You can’t go anywhere without a chaperone, can be easily compromised by the slightest glance of a man, and most certainly cannot go about trying to solve the mystery of your family’s stolen heirloom. Such is the plight that Lady Truthful “Newt Newington finds herself in when a very powerful magical emerald necklace, the Newington Emerald, seemingly vanishes into thin air.
Truthful wants to reclaim her family’s jewels and, with the help of a crafty great–aunt, disguises herself with a glamour to walk about as a young man. Now the real detective work can begin.
High jinks, kidnappings, masquerade balls, comedic dialogue, and a dash of romance distinguish this first in a new series.
