The Baroness of Bow Street — Gail Clark

AFFAIRS -- AMOROUS AND MURDEROUS

London is simply seething with scandal. Lord Warwick's been murdered and the notorious Leda Langtry is going to the gallows for it. But the Bow Street Runners haven't counted on Dulcie Bligh, the flamboyant Baroness of Bow Street. Underneath Dulcie's green, pink or orchid hair--depending an her mood -- is a brilliant mind, and she's determined to rescue Leda from a most untimely fate.

Mignon Montague, Lady Bligh's niece, is as daring as her aunt. Sent to London to forget an unfortunate affair, she is happily occupied while Dulcie is busy pursuing the criminal mastermind. But those occupations have led Mignon to a few indiscretions of her own. And now she is being passionately sought after by several gentlemen suitors...and one or two murderers.
