Summary
Anna made a mental list of things that would make her life perfect: her own prisoner; Mr. Wright and her father’s permission to be a matron and to sleep overnight in the jail; matron uniforms designed by Vionnet at the House of Doucet; and a joint assignment with Eve McBride to solve a murder.
It’s 1907 Los Angeles. The best future Anna Blanc can hope for is to be married off to the highest bidder. What she really wants to do is use her formidable brain to trap criminals like Sherlock Holmes. So, Anna does what any girl would do in her situation. She buys off her chaperone with heirloom jewelry and uses an alias to secretly get a job as a matron with the Los Angeles Police Department. If the cops find out, she’ll get fired; if her father finds out, he’ll disown her; and if her fiancé finds out, he’ll cancel the wedding.
When Anna falls afoul of the police chief’s handsome son, hot shot detective Joe Singer, and he discovers her secret identity, Anna must choose—either be the detective she was born to be and risk losing everything or abandon her dreams and leave a killer on the loose.
