Lady Katherine juggles Christmas festivities, a perplexing cold case, and a wager with the annoying Captain Wayland that will prove once and for all which of them is the better detective.

It's the Christmas season in London, but the holiday festivities don't deter Lady Katherine from investigating a death that happened months earlier. Since the victim was a maid, investigative resources were sparse, and the police hastily wrote it off as a random killing. But Lady Katherine and her friends believe it was nothing short of premeditated murder, and they vow to seek justice.

With her Bow Street Runner friend Lyle acting as a neutral party, Katherine teams up with her friend Prudence Burwick, her maid Harriett, and of course her pug Emma. Wayland has the aid of Pru's fiancรฉ Lord Annandale and his valet McTavish.

The two teams race against each other in a hunt for clues that takes them through the servants' quarters, stables, and seedy underbelly of London in search of a dangerous killer who thinks they got away with murder.

Will the best men . . . or women . . . win?

USA Today bestselling author Leighann Dobbs discovered her passion for writing after a twenty-year career as a software engineer. She lives in New Hampshire with her husband Bruce, their trusty Chihuahua mix Mojo and beautiful rescue cat, Kitty. When she's not reading, gardening, making jewelry or selling antiques, she likes to write cozy mystery and historical romance books. Her book Dead Wrong won the Best Mystery Romance Award at the 2014 Indie Romance Convention. Her book Ghostly Paws was the 2015 Chanticleer Mystery & Mayhem First Place category winner in the Animal Mystery category.

Harmony Williams has been living vicariously in Regency-era England since she discovered Jane Austen. Since time machines don't yet exist, she's had to make do with books-fictional and nonfictional. On the rare occasions she doesn't have her nose stuck in a book, she likes to drink tea and spend time with her ninety-pound lapdog. A feminist, she writes stories about strong women and the men who support them as equals.

Beverley A. Crick is a New York-based actress and accomplished voice-over artist. Her credits include film, television, commercials, radio, corporate narrations, looping, theater, comedy, and hosting. She breathes life into her characters and is a versatile chameleon, as comfortable weaving nurturing children's tales as she is narrating technical/academic material or biographies, infusing Regency romances with stylized intrigue or imbuing erotic fantasy with intimate sensuality. Her humor, dedication to research, and sensibility to nuance collectively inform all her narrations.
