The Berkeley Brigade, London's most aristocratic and stylish foursome, find themselves once more enmeshed in mystery and romance in Joan Smith's dazzling series. . . .

Though Lady Corinne deCoventry and dashing Lord Luten are now officially engaged, their wedding is perpetually postponed due to Luten's never-ending politicking. Thus Corinne and the bungling Coffen Pattle accept an invitation to join fourth Brigade member Reginald Prance at his country home.

Yet murder soon casts all best-laid plans aside. The victim is an odious neighbor, and the prime suspect-Reginald's own dear aunt. As the Berkeley Brigade joins forces to investigate, the countryside becomes a veritable cauldron of clues and motives-complete with a fair enchantress to tempt Corinne's beloved Luten. But matching wiles with a clever killer is what Corinne does best. If only getting married were so easy!
