Victorian London, 1895….Henrietta Jones is about to snap!
Wild and unmanageable, “Harry” runs away to buy a horseless carriage and a pair of red buttoned up boots. She instantly dislikes an arrogant American called Joshua Quinn. When she can’t intimidate him, she falls in love with his automobile, needles him, taunts him, flaunts her ice maiden look until he is driven mad, and then plots to straighten his nose.
The first Henrietta Jones was blessed with a daughter who has grown up to be more extreme and full of the devil than anyone else in Victorian England. After being trained to steal, cheat at life and kill men with two fingers, she finally rebels.
But somebody is killing automobile inventors and wants Joshua dead. She discovers a murderous scheme to destroy England, and upsets the beautiful but brutal red-lipped cigarette-smoking Magda von Uxhuell-Gillenband, who tries to seduce Joshua and then tries to kill him.
She postpones her plans to turn wild, so that she can unravel automobile murders, a deadly secret treaty, and save a stupid boy. She seems to be England’s top spy but nobody has told her. She becomes a brilliant detective but steals the evidence. She enters the first London to Brighton Automobile Race, and fights a femme fatale in the last ever duel in Hyde Park.
Only Harry can save the country but can Joshua stand the pace? And she still has to fix that infuriating broken nose!
