\"bookJewel thief on the loose,
\nGangs terrorizing 1909 London’s Chinatown<\/a>,
\nA young woman’s body in the river!
\nHas crime boss the Baron returned?<\/p>\n

At Sinclair’s department store, Sophie sells ladies’ hats, Lil models elegant dresses, and both young women keep their eyes open for strange events, like the disappearance of a valuable moth-shaped brooch during an engagement party.<\/p>\n

Time for disguises and etiquette review as they drop in on debutantes, check over clues with buddies Billy and Joe, and research the Moonbeam Diamond’s curse!<\/p>\n

My no-spoiler recommendation of book 1<\/a>, Mystery of the Clockwork Sparrow<\/em>, introduces Sophie and Lil as Sinclair’s Department Store opens amid rumor and mystery. Watch for book 3, Mystery of the Painted Dragon<\/em>.<\/p>\n

What disguise would you choose when sleuthing about?
