Lady Rose Summer refuses to abide by her parents' insistence that she marry. Even more distressing, she wants to work. On advice from Captain Harry Cathcart - a noble-born private investigator who knows Rose all too well - her parents agree to let Rose work as a typist and live in a women's hostel.

But life as a working woman isn't quite what Rose imagined: When a playboy is murdered, Rose returns to high society to follow a trail of deception, rumors, and devious plots - even as a singularly calculating killer prepares to end rebellious Rose's sleuthing for good!

These stories of Lady Rose and her adventures are always fun, and lack the steamy elements that many such authors attempt to sneak into similar tales.

It is a little aggravating that the main characters take so very long to figure out what will make them happy, but maybe that’s true-to-life.

Funny and clean

This light historical mystery is well done with good historical detail, well drawn characters and excellent narration. The Adventures of Rose and Harry highlight the poor position even high Society women occupied at this time. Highly recommended, especially if it’s still available for free in the plus catalog

Entertaining

Totally contrived but the bit with the doctor made me laugh out loud with each twist.

Hysterically funny
