Praise for A Curious Beginning "Wickedly clever and devilishly amusing...Veronica Speedwell is a joy--unflappable, unrepentant, and thoroughly delightful."--Susan Elia MacNeal, New York Times bestselling author of the Maggie Hope series "The eccentricities of Victorian England receive a rousing look in the highly entertaining A Curious Beginning ...Energetic storytelling."-- South Florida Sun-Sentinel "Creating strong character pairings, placing the action in unexpectedly unusual but actual historical settings, and folding it all into a clever mystery are hallmarks of this author's magical, signature style...This new series starts off with a bang."-- Library Journal (starred review) "I love this book! Brings us the powerful Veronica Speedwell, who triumphs over adversity and danger with wit, charm, and uncanny determination. A real find."--Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Virgin River series

Synopsis
The New York Times bestselling author of the Lady Julia Grey mysteries returns once more to Victorian England and introduces intrepid adventuress Veronica Speedwell.... London, 1887. After burying her spinster aunt, orphaned Veronica Speedwell is free to resume her world travels in pursuit of scientific inquiry--and the occasional romantic dalliance. As familiar with hunting butterflies as with fending off admirers, Veronica intends to embark upon the journey of a lifetime. But fate has other plans when Veronica thwarts her own attempted abduction with the help of an enigmatic German baron, who offers her sanctuary in the care of his friend Stoker, a reclusive and bad-tempered natural historian. But before the baron can reveal what he knows of the plot against her, he is found murdered--leaving Veronica and Stoker on the run from an elusive assailant as wary partners in search of the villainous truth.
