Rubies and Runaways: Rose Raventhorpe Investigates (Book 2)

Another cracking mystery adventure starring the most unladylike detective you'll ever meet!

Rose’s ghastly cousin Herbert has come to stay, and Rose’s parents insist she be a gracious hostess and show him round. Rose can imagine nothing worse than spending time with the self-satisfied know-it-all. So when a young girl is kidnapped, Rose is secretly delighted – not at the poor kid’s ordeal but at the thought of putting her sleuthing skills to use and dumping Herbert in the process. But as Rose becomes swept up in a secret society of chimney sweeps and entangled in an antique mystery, things quickly heat up and Rose needs all the help she can get, including the help of horrible Herbert.
