In a crowd full of secrets, Lady Ramsay must find the one who'd kill to protect theirs. When the Thames freezes solid and the legendary Frost Fair springs to life once more, Lady Mildred Ramsay expects a pleasant day of strolling stalls, sipping spiced drinks, and preventing her best friend from buying anything that squawks. What she does not expect is a sudden death in one of the tents, a missing manuscript of great historical importance, and Scotland Yard's inconvenient belief that her own brother may be involved. The victim had been boasting of a discovery that would rewrite English history-and someone clearly decided history was best left alone. With the river cracking beneath the weight of carnival-goers and gossip swirling like winter fog, Mildred is drawn once again into a labyrinth of clues, secrets, and suspects. Inspector Charles Kent is determined to keep order, but Mildred is equally determined to uncover the truth, regardless of how many rare book dealers, cryptographers, moral crusaders, or suspiciously nervous accountants stand in her way. Their partnership-part friction, part admiration, part something neither of them will name-quickly becomes the talk of the fair. Every suspect has something to hide.
Several have something to lose.
And one of them would very much like Mildred to stop being so clever, thank you. But Lady Ramsay has never been easily discouraged-especially not when family honour, intellectual curiosity, and a particularly intriguing inspector are all at stake.
As the ice melts beneath London's feet, Mildred must uncover the truth before the Frost Fair disappears... along with the killer's last remaining tracks. Brimming with wit, charm, mystery, and 1920s flair, The Mystery of the Forgotten Forgery is a delightful romp through frozen rivers, stolen manuscripts, and the irresistible spark of a most unlikely sleuth. Get your copy of The Mystery of the Forgotten Forgery and see how events unfold in this historical cozy mystery.
