Maisie and Fraser Hamilton are bored. Their new employment at the Foreign Office, under the thumb of Mr Baxter, is tedious beyond words. But when their friends the Lamonts come to dinner, everything shifts.
Connie offers Maisie a job at the Caster and Fleet Detective Agency. But Fraser, charmed by Albert's stories of family life, has other thoughts on his mind...
At last, the Foreign Office assign the pair to investigate a suspect. But on the evening they meet him, at a fundraiser for his charity, he dies...
Is it murder? Maisie and Fraser struggle to find out, bound by red tape and hampered by Fraser's former police boss.
Maisie is juggling two jobs, very aware that pregnancy may end her professional life. And when she befriends the suspect's widow, a horrifying possibility comes to light.
Can Maisie and Fraser discover the truth? And can Maisie reconcile her work and her personal life?
