Description
Gilded Age trouser diva Ella Shane and her Duke are at long last headed for the altar...but they'll confront a murder, a shipwreck, a questionable Polish prince, and any number of other complications on the way. Continuing the highly praised series featuring a Lower East Side orphan who found fame and fortune as a singer of male soprano roles, this new installment follows Ella and her surprisingly diverse cast of family and friends through mystery and misadventure...and into the greatest challenge of all for an independent-minded woman and her Victorian swain: matrimony!
