This is one of the best Lady Julia stories I have read. Raybourn's writing is light and lyrical. It streams easily and flawlessly from start to finish. This one starts essentially with a seance and the death of the woman conducting it, an accident says the coroner. However, Lady Julia and Brisbane do not believe this verdict. Working on a way to help her brother, Lord Bellmont, who foolishly became involved with the dead woman and even more foolishly wrote of his infatuation in letters to her, they find themselves witnessing the woman's death. When her sister is likewise killed, pushed under a train, they know they have much to learn. The story combines spying with detective work both which combine for a most intriguing tale. I did not know who might have committed the murders. It seems that the two were committed by different people but the reader will never be sure. If you enjoy the charming and fiercely independent Lady Julia put this one on your reading list.
