'Henrietta and Clive are a sexy, endearing, and downright fun pair of sleuths. Readers will not see the final twist coming.' - Library Journal, starred review 'Fans of spunky, historical heroines will love Henrietta Von Harmon.' - Booklist, starred review 'Henrietta and Inspector Howard are the best pair of sleuths I've come across in ages. A fantastic start to what is sure to be a long running series.' - Tasha Alexander, New York Times bestselling author Henrietta Von Harmon works as a 26 girl at a corner bar on Chicago's northwest side. It's 1935, but things still aren't looking up since the big crash and her father's subsequent suicide, leaving Henrietta to care for her antagonistic mother and younger siblings. Henrietta is eventually persuaded to take a job as a taxi dancer at a local dance hall - and just when she's beginning to enjoy herself, the floor matron turns up dead. When aloof Inspector Clive Howard appears on the scene, Henrietta agrees to go undercover for him - and is plunged into Chicago's grittier underworld. Meanwhile, she's still busy playing mother hen to her younger siblings, as well as to pesky neighborhood boy Stanley, who believes himself in love with her and keeps popping up in the most unlikely places, determined to keep Henrietta safe - even from the Inspector, if need be. Despite his efforts, however, and his penchant for messing up the Inspector's investigation, the lovely Henrietta and the impenetrable Inspector find themselves drawn to each other in most unsuitable ways.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49503455838481,"sku":"CIN1631520164G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49546051387665,"sku":"GOR008774723","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50163347947793,"sku":"CIN1631520164VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51040237027601,"sku":"NIN9781631520167","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51544046436625,"sku":"GOR014322548","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1631520164.jpg?v=1751213831"},{"product_id":"veil-removed-book-michelle-cox-9781631525032","title":"A Veil Removed","description":"Mixing Romance and Mystery in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!' 'This is a wonderfully-written, engaging story with excellent character treatment and a thrilling mystery.' - IBPA, Independent Book Publishers Association 'Another triumph in a gorgeously romantic, but also seriously compelling mystery series.' - Readers Favorite 'Entertaining... Composed of large dollops of romance and a soupcon of mystery, this confection will appeal.' - Publishers Weekly Murder is never far from this sexy couple ... even during the holidays! Their honeymoon abruptly ended by the untimely death of Alcott Howard, Clive and Henrietta return to Highbury, where Clive discovers all is not as it should be. Increasingly convinced that his father's death was not an accident, Clive launches his own investigation, despite his mother's belief that he has become 'mentally disturbed' with grief. Henrietta eventually joins forces with Clive on their first real case, which becomes darker - and deadlier - than they imagined as they get closer to the truth behind Alcott's troubled affairs. Meanwhile, Henrietta's sister, Elsie, begins, at Henrietta's orchestration, to take classes at a women's college - an attempt to evade her troubles and prevent any further romantic temptations. When she meets a bookish German custodian at the school, however, he challenges her to think for herself ... even as she discovers some shocking secrets about his past life.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49677454475537,"sku":"CIN1631525034G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50427163214097,"sku":"CIN1631525034VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1631525034.jpg?v=1751058044"},{"product_id":"spying-eye-book-michelle-cox-9781647425005","title":"A Spying Eye","description":"Mixing Romance and Mystery in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!'

Henrietta and Clive Howard finally live out their unbridled passion for each other's intellect and charm - while solving a case!' - Rebecca Rosenberg, author of Champagne Widows Clive and Henrietta return to Europe in an attempt to resurrect their failed honeymoon. While in London, they are approached by their old friend, Inspector John Hartle, who convinces them to search for the missing panel of the Ghent Altarpiece, a famous Renaissance painting, of which Hitler's top men are also in pursuit. Meanwhile, back in Chicago, Oldrich Exley threatens to cut off financial support for the entire Von Harmon brood if Elsie continues with her plan to marry Gunther - a situation made worse by the sudden appearance of one Heinrich Meyer, who claims to be little Anna's father and threatens to take her away.
