About this ebook

Lady Adelaide closes in on the German spymaster called the Doctor… 


Lady Adelaide Azalea Margaret de Morville, Mrs. Hugh Becket, leads an operation to recruit a potential double agent with a connection to the Doctor, with Torin Slane, the Irish professor and Fenian, and Daniel Bannister, Baron Leighton, to assist her. All three work under the cover of the traditional Salinghall Christmas Eve Ball, which Adele’s family has attended every year for decades. 

 

But returning home for Christmas, after eloping with a commoner many years ago, comes with complications, including her judgemental and difficult father and her trouble-prone sisters. 

 

Only, the real trouble comes from a completely unexpected direction, putting Adele on a collision course with the Doctor himself… 

 

This novelette is the sixth in the Adelaide Becket Edwardian espionage series.

Praise for the Adelaide Becket series: 

 

Tracy takes you again back in time to an era you could only imagine about but brings it in vivid color through her story 

 

A delightful game of cat and mouse 

 

I thoroughly enjoyed this magnificent first in series book!! 

 

The writing style is easy to read and the plot COMPLETELY unpredictable!! 

 

It was a marvelous escape from reality 

 

Breathtaking start to a fantastic new series by Tracy Cooper-Posey. 

 

Succinct and yet rich in the details that create historical immersion and scenes I found easy to imagine being a part. 

 

I loooove good quality writing and I love a new series like a junkie. Just give it a try, you won't be disappointed! 

 

I am always amazed at how much story can get packed into these “Adelaide Becket” Novellas 

 

Tension and intrigue kept me gripped in the story, and swept along for the adventure 

 

I am thoroughly enjoying taking that journey with her and I recommend reading these in order so you can see the development progress!

Ohhhh dang, I'm hanging onto a cliff. The author continues to put so much into a short story. Adele's sisters secret are discovered and the sisters attitude was a bomb of a surprise, especially when you consider the time period. Then we have a new character, the Captain , whose feelings toward women is so ugh, but fits the era perfectly (but was still so exasperating to read) and as always, Adele handles both incidents great. Then we get a bloody body and her immediate take on it is amazing. Like I've told this author before, she's given us a magnificent female Sherlock. I'd love to see a TV series from these books on PBS; check out this series and you'll agree.

Intrigue with interesting insights into Adele's family. I found Adele to be as captivating as ever. She has forged herself a reputation amongst her compatriots as an experienced operative and now has the confidence to lead an investigation. The action in this story takes place on Adele's family's home turf, allowing her interactions with her sisters and father to give us further clues about her background, character and personality. I thoroughly enjoyed this latest instalment of Adele's adventures in spying and the machinations of the German's efforts to undermine the British. For me, this book is definitely a must-read (as part of the series) and I look forward to reading the next book.
