The Mystery Woman: a Ladies of Lantern Street Novel/Amanda Quick/371 pgs.

This Amanda Quick series takes place in Victorian London. The main character, Beatrice Lockwood, escapes the clutches of an assassin by the name of the Bone Man.  He knows her as "Miranda the Clairvoyant;" because of her psychic ability, Beatrice is hired by the Flint & Marsh Agency as an investigator. She "meets" Joshua Gage, who, in the past, has carried out secret missions for the Crown. When it becomes evident that someone wants Beatrice dead, she and Joshua join forces to discover the "who" and "why." There is mystery, mild suspense, and romance--a perfect combination! A great summer read!
