Jacky Faber is framed as passing confidential U.S. information to the British. Forced to flee Boston, she goes undercover as a governess for a prominent Puritan family. When outed by a nosy postmaster, she deserts the respectability of her position, dons a leotard and slippers, and poses as a Russian tightrope walker in a traveling circus. But the law soon catches up with her, and prospects do not look good. Through her many adventures, Jacky has always found the ingenuity to escape dire situations, but this time it looks like Puss in Boots has run out of lives... and her happily-ever-after will be cut short at the foot of the gallows.

Summary:
Jacky Faber is on the run yet again. The story contains several very long arcs. I liked her time as a governess best.
Additional Comments:
- Kellgren is amazing as usual but a lot of the middle was just painful because of the Russian accent and that Italian fool Jacky was playing around with.
- The end is satisfying but Oy, this is a long winded story. Unnecessarily so in some cases.
- It really ticks me off when parts are repeated. The entire letter from the previous book with Clarissa gloating was repeated in the beginning of this one. Do u know how annoying that is?
- Flashby finally got a fitting end, thank goodness.
- I like the irrepressible Jacky but she is also kinda a jerk to her closest friends, especially Jaimy.
Conclusion:
It’s a fitting end of an excellent series, even if it did drag on and on near forever.
4.5/5 stars
