A season in London guarantees a pleasant change of tempo for two friends from the village of Kurland St. Mary - until murder makes a debut. Using the reluctant blessings with their dad, the rector of Kurland St. Mary, Lucy Harrington and her sister Anna set off for a public season in London. At the same time, Lucy's special friend Major Robert Kurland is summoned to the town to simply accept a baronetcy for his wartime heroism. Amidst the dizzying whirl of balls and formal dinners, the focus shifts from combining and matchmaking to murder when the dowager Countess of Broughton, the mother of a vintage army friend of Robert, drops dead. When it's disclosed she's been poisoned, Robert's ex - betrothed, Pass up Chingford, is accused, and she subsequently details a finger at Anna. To protect her sister, Lucy enlists Robert's aid in drawing out the true culprit. But with suspects which range from resentful competitors and embittered members of the family to the toast of the ton, it will take almost all their sleuthing skills to unmask the poisoner before more trouble is stirred up.
