My Review
I am obsessed with British mysteries. This historical mystery is my favorite, as the main character is a British spy who leaves her home to accompany Captain Hall’s niece, Eliza. This young lady wants to go to all the social events even though she is just a teen. The main character is one of Britain’s female spies, but right now her assignment is to chaperone Eliza to America. On the ship over, she decides to learn all she can about the culture and volcabulary. She’ll be keeping her out for Frederick Fredericks, a German spy. This is a real page-turner and I am excited to read the other books coming later in this series.
