The Wedding Caper by Jo Ann Ferguson (Zebra Regency Romance)

Description from the book back cover: The long-awaited wedding of Sir Neville Hathaway and Lady Priscilla Flanders is only three weeks away - and an evening at the theatre should prove a welcome diversion. But before the final curtain, a noblewoman is slain in her private box ... Was the killer a mere thief, desperate to cover up his crime? Or did Lady Harmony Lummis die at the hands of her lover, the acclaimed thespian Reginald Birdwell? Neville and Priscilla begin to investigate before the body is cold, but the murderer eludes them. Now all the ton is abuzz - and gossip has it that Harmony's indifferent husband paid the handsome actor to keep his wife happy ... There is only one clue to follow: Harmony's jeweled brooch was ripped from her gown. The bauble is a family heirloom of unique design, and if the murdered has pawned it, Neville and Priscilla can track him down. But to find the killer, they must borrow costumes from the shuttered theatre and play the role of criminals ... on the most dangerous streets in London ...

A Great Read!

A late-comer to the Priscilla Flanders mysteries, I recently picked up A Rather Necessary End. I was immediately hooked and had to search out the rest of the books in the series. Each one was a delight, and The Wedding Caper is no exception! Priscilla is an intelligent, keen-eyed sleuth and Sir Neville is her perfect counterpoint. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching their relationship develop through the series. As a die hard Georgette Heyer fan, I'm also delighted with Ms. Ferguson's ability to sketch the Regency scene to pefection.
