"The third book in M.C. Beaton's Edwardian murder mystery series - a must for
her many fans

It would seem that even a pretend engagement cannot keep Lady Rose Summer from
trouble. Bored with endless parties, teas and balls, she befriends Dolly
Tremaine, a beautiful young girl newly arrived from the country and overwhelmed
by the demands of the Season. Their friendship is cut tragically short,
however, when Dolly is found dead in the river, with flowers in her hair and
blood on her breast.

Rose immediately summons her fiance, investigator Captain Harry Cathcart, to
help solve the mystery of Dolly's death - and to keep her from becoming the
murderer's next victim.
