The Missing Baronet

When Sir Charles Browning, a young aristocrat, apparently abandons his wife, leaving her destitute and ostracised, Sarah Kedron, a successful playwright and feminist, agrees to help the young wife by finding out what has happened. James Brewster, the editor of her father’s weekly periodical, assists Sarah in her investigation. Their search for the truth takes them from the high society of Regency England to its shady underbelly. Firmly established in the social, political and economic conditions of the time, The Missing Baronet is an enthralling read.
