The Emerald Teapot - Paperback

by Rosalie Oaks (Author)

A Regency wedding breakfast shouldn't include murder...particularly not by teapot.

Elinor had hoped for a peaceful honeymoon in the charming seaside town of Brighton.

Instead, she has a murder to solve, a brooding husband to reassure, and her entire family installed in the house, in the misguided notion that they are needed to protect her-for it seems dreadfully clear that the bride was the intended victim of the lethal wedding present.

Luckily, Elinor has a sensible plan: disguise herself as her own widowed mother so that she may safely investigate.

But it appears that Elinor's family is keeping their own secrets. A libertine duke is pursuing her mother-who has unaccountably mislaid her mobcaps-and her brother has befriended a suspicious footman. When Beresford is snatched away in the middle of it all, Elinor must outwit a ruthless killer to save her new husband, her wayward family, and quite possibly all of Britain.

Who wants to kill the bride? What secrets hide in the enchanted teapot collection? And what on earth is her mother wearing?

The Emerald Teapot is the fifth book in the Lady Diviner series, set in a magical Regency Brighton filled with intrigue, farcical disguises, and pocket vampires.

For fans of the wit and chaos of Gail Carriger, India Holton, or Deanna Raybourn.
