A severed foot. Fingerprints left on a wine glass. A secret cypher code. The scent of orange and cinnamon left behind by the murderer.

Mikaela Forsythe, adventuress, author, and now private investigator, is back, pulled into a deadly case that may just see her friend, actress Theodora Templeton, sent to prison for murder when that severed foot is found in her bed and a high-ranking official has gone missing.

But is it a crime of passion or something far more sinister?

The British Museum gets one more corpse than they bargained for as doors open for their new Egyptian exhibit.

Excitement is palpable among London Society as the opening of the exhibit draws near. An invitation-only affair, it will be attended by the likes of the Queen, foreign dignitaries, and high-placed people in society, which most certainly includes Mikaela Forsythe and her great aunt, Lady Montgomery.

Ghosts from the past have the nasty habit of refusing to stay buried.

Returning from an extended stay in Scotland, life for Mikaela and Brodie picks up right back where it left off. Brodie is immediately tasked with a new case for the Agency, while Mikaela must attend a reception for the release of her latest novel. But, as it always does, intrigue has begun to creep its way back in.

For the women in London, the “chance of a lifetime” may prove to be their last.

Hidden among the romantic rendezvous and and secret messages in The Times of London’s Personal Column, a peculiar ad offers one young woman the opportunity of escape: travel, adventure, and a new life—no questions asked, all expenses paid. It seems too good to be true.

For Gwen, Charolette, and Lizzie, it was. Each woman responded. Each disappeared without a trace.

Sins of the father...

A chilling message on a note delivered to the Prince of Wales.

A prank, a cruel joke, or a threat against the royal family?

A hunter is stalking London’s streets—and Angus Brodie is his final mark.

A constable found dead on his nightly beat.
A retired chief inspector slain in his own home.
A judge silenced forever in his chambers.

Three murders. One pattern. And one name left on the killer’s list: Brodie.

A dying challenge. A blood‑stained name. A mystery that refuses to stay buried.

London is no stranger to scandal, but when journalist Theodolphus Burke summons author and amateur sleuth Mikaela Forsythe with an urgent note—only to be found bleeding to death outside a pub—the case becomes personal. Burke was no friend to Mikaela; he mocked her work, belittled her investigations, and delighted in provoking enemies through his ruthless exposés of London’s darkest secrets.
