met the Beast, and there was . . . bloody murder?
It’s the
Annual Ambassadorial Ball in Glause, and Lady Isabella Farrah, the daughter of
New Civet’s Ambassador, is feeling pleasantly scintillated.
In the library is Lord Pecus, a charming gentleman whose double
mask hides a beastly face, and who has decided that Isabella is the very person
to break the Pecus curse.
In the ball-room is young Lord Topher, who is rapidly falling in
love with an older woman.
And in the card-room, lying in a pool of his own blood, is the
body of one of Isabella’s oldest friends: Raoul, Civet’s Head Guardsman. The papers sewn into his sash seem to suggest
espionage gone wrong, but Isabella is not so certain.
Lord Pecus, as Commander of the Watch,
is of the opinion that Isabella should keep out of the investigation and out of
danger. Isabella is of the opinion that
it is her murder to investigate, and that what a certain Beast-Lord
doesn’t know won’t hurt him. . . .
Will Isabella find the murderer before Lord Pecus does, or will
she end her investigation as a bloody spatter on the parlour floor?
