Mary’s second adventure as an undercover agent forces her to relive some harrowing childhood experiences as she seeks the identity of a murderer.Mary Quinn’s new assignment sends her into the building site of the clock tower for the Houses of Parliament dressed as an impoverished young boy, evoking her own childhood memories of fear, hunger, and constant want. As she insinuates herself into the confidence of several persons of interest, she encounters others in desperate situations and struggles to make a difference without exposing — or losing — her identity. Mary’s second adventure offers a fictional window into the fascinating, if grimy, underbelly of Victorian London.
I look forward to reading the first book in this series, although not having read it did not detract from reading book 2.This is a clever twist on private investigation agencies, both because it is all women and because of the restraints of the time period.The puzzle is interesting, the plot sufficiently complex, the characters well developed, and the bit of romance just the right amount to not get in the story's way.All in all, a good read.Now I'm off to A Spy in the House book 1
