The Berkley Brigade, the adventuresome foursome who manage to
combine sleuthing and romance with their social duties as the
London ton's most popular young social set, is back in this
lighthearted Regency tale. This time, a mysterious French comtesse
appears on the scene selling possibly forged works of art and
setting her cap at Lord Luten, much to the chagrin of Corinne
de Coventry, Luten's fiancé. Lord Luten decides to get closer
to the possibly spurious comtesse in order to discover whether
she is selling fake paintings to his friends, or worse, becoming
involved in English politics and influencing Parliament as to
which firm should get a lucrative arms contract which could affect
the war effort in France. Unfortunately, he decides not to inform
his fiancé of his plans which
infuriates her, to say the least. When the comtesse's painter who
is responsible for the forgeries turns up dead -- found by
Corinne -- the race is on to find out just what the comtesse's
game is: espionage, romantic intrigue or both? A charming and
lighthearted romantic tale for those who like the spice of
a little intrigue with their romance.
