Young widow Annabel Chalfont, Countess of Fellbridge, has two small sons to raise, a mountain of her late husband's debts to pay off, and a secret: she's a shadow-shaper, able to manipulate shadow as anyone else might clay. She and six other high-born ladies with equally extraordinary abilities defend England against supernatural crime-but the world knows them only as the Lady Patronesses of Almack's, Regency London's most exclusive social venue. This volume contains the first three installments of The Ladies of Almack's series: The Forgery Furore : Who is forging vouchers to Almack's...in Annabel's name? The Vanishing Volume : When book fandom in Regency London is foiled by magic, the Ladies come to the rescue. Lyrics and Larceny : Annabel's cousin is in love, and London's jewels are being spirited away...might there be a connection?
