What do you do when a dead body lands on your doorstep?

1794, England

When a body is unceremoniously dumped outside her home, Lady Ottilia Fanshawe is once more drawn into a murder case.

Ottilia is recovering from the birth of her first child and her husband, Lord Francis Fanshawe, is worried that she has finally taken on more than she can handle.

But Ottilia will not be diverted. Motherhood has always been her deepest desire, but solving crimes is her passion. And she is determined to balance both.

No one in her household recognizes the dead man, and yet a note was left with Lady Fan's name on it. Clearly, someone wants her to investigate the crime, but why?

Who is the dead man? Why was he killed? And what led to him being dropped at Lady Fan's door?

Elizabeth Bailey is the author of more than a dozen Regency novels, including Mademoiselle At Arms, the Brides By Chance Regency Adventures, and the Lady Fan Mystery series. She grew up in Africa with unconventional parents, where she loved reading and drama. On returning to England, she developed her career in acting, theater directing and finally writing. Elizabeth lives in Sussex, England.

Esther Wane is a British actor and voice-over artist. After a career in finance Esther fulfilled a childhood dream of going to drama school in London, and her life as an actor began at age forty. She has a lifelong passion for literature and can often be found browsing bookshops at any spare moment. She owes her career in audiobooks to her impression of Joanna Lumley and has since narrated books in many genres, including memoir, politics, romantic fiction, and children's literature. She enjoys taking her listeners on a journey in time and space and bringing the characters on the page to life in their imagination. She lives with her family and collection of books in Hertfordshire, just outside London, where she has built a professional voice studio in the bottom of her garden.
