Mystery
In the second in Pamela Christie's witty, deliciously
unconventional Regency mystery series, Arabella
Beaumont—courtesan and sleuth—discovers that the pursuit of
art can be a dangerous thing. . . London's aristocrats pay handsomely for the company of
courtesan Arabella Beaumont. Arabella, in turn, wisely
invests her earnings in an art collection that will endure
long after her legendary charms have faded. It's a decided
blow, then, when her antiquities dealer is murdered before
he can procure an item for which she paid dearly—a rare and
provocative statue of Pan. Undaunted, Arabella decides to
travel to Italy and locate the treasure herself. What begins as a delightful caprice soon takes on a sinister
aspect. Arabella's quest appears to have made her a donna
fatale, causing death and mayhem wherever she goes. A thing
of beauty may be a joy forever, but Arabella's own life
could be cut scandalously short unless she can locate the
statue, and uncover the heart of an ever-deepening mystery. . .
