Description: "The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. And as with everything concerning the Prince Regent, discretion is paramount. It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. Unfortunately, his superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke--known for his behind-the-scenes machinations--have an ulterior motive? When one of Philippa's rescued girls is arrested for stealing the royal jewels and another is murdered, Philippa will risk partnering with Bertie to find the loot and stop the killer."--

Review Quotes: Erica Vetsch has outdone herself in A Thieving at Carlton House, creating the perfect blend of swoony romance, historical intrigue, and page-turning suspense. It's a mystery that's as fun as it is clever, with enough twists to keep you guessing, and richly drawn characters you'll be rooting for all the way. Perfect for anyone who loves a good caper and a story that lingers long after the last page.--Misty M. Beller, USA Today best-selling author of the Sisters of the Rockies series (6/4/2024 12:00:00 AM)
