A MOST INELIGIBLE SUITOR from Avalon Books. Allow me to introduce you to Marjorie Mayweather, a well-heeled debutante who ventures on her Grand Tour to Italy in 1897, in the company of a distant cousin. At their modest pension, Marjorie meets a dashing but aloof Captain Edward Grainger. She considers him stodgy and over-protective. Straining against the restrictions of conventional society and eager for adventure, Marjorie manages to get herself into a number of scrapes in which the begrudging Captain Grainger comes to her rescue. Unknown to Marjorie, Captain Grainger works for Lloyds, and is in pursuit of a notorious international jewel thief. His job is to assure the South Sea pearls of Mrs. Grace Parmeter are not pinched while she vacations in Tuscany. An informant has told Edward that the thief is a resident of Marjorie’s pension. Enter the Honorable Freddie Clive-Bickerton who wishes for Marjorie’s hand and her fortune. He takes her to the opera in style and has the most impeccable manners. Marjorie soon realizes it’s Edward Grainger who can be depended on. She works with him to uncover the thief and discovers falling in love to be the grandest adventure of them all.
