About this listen

A nosy duke’s daughter and a sharp-eyed Bow Street Runner join forces to solve a rather peculiar crime.

Violet Garland may be a duke’s daughter, but she has a strong streak of daredevil. What she wants most in life is adventure—and when she spots a Bow Street Runner among the ton, she knows she’s finally found it. She’ll help the investigator track down his villain, whether he wishes her to or not!

Bow Street Principal Officer Perry Wintersmith does not want any assistance, especially from a female as persistent and annoying as Lady Violet Garland. Although Lady Violet does possess a most uncommon talent and she is exceptionally good at following people…

Perhaps he ought to accept her offer of help? Together they might be able to unravel a rather perplexing mystery—and Perry may just avoid falling off any roofs.

Take one adventure-seeking duke’s daughter, one solitary Bow Street Runner, a strange series of thefts, a dash of magic, a sprinkling of naughty drawings, and what do you have? A romp of a Regency romance that will sweep you through London’s alleyways and over its rooftops, with detours into cupboards, attics, bandboxes, and ballrooms.

Contains mature themes. A Regency romance with steamy love scenes.

Performed by Audie-winning narrator Rosalyn Landor.

The narrator is excellent, but with four hours left I was ready for it to end.
Just far too long unfortunately.

Far too long

Where do I start -
The plot was very good and well presented - BUT those endless sex scenes took away from the story line -
If I wanted soft porn I would go online - but I am looking for a good story when I download a novel/book

Due this fact I reduce the stars ⭐️ the book otherwise would have achieved.

Far fetched …but good plot

Yes a little far fetched but was good fun. There was enough going on to keep me engaged in this story. Characters were strong.

A fun story

The first book might have been based on a Fairy Tale, but at least it was realistic. How the heroine managed to keep her family secret for so long, when she behaves so childishly, is beyond belife. In fact she is extremely irritating.
The "ad nauseam", use of "she is a Duke's Daughter". Makes it sound as no other class of woman counts.
The porngraphy is "shoe horned" into an already unbelievable tale.
Sadly the the secondary characters, do nothing to improve this pathetic story.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR CREDITS.

Childish and Tedious.
