The Dark Enquiry

I enjoyed The Dark Enquiry by Deanna Raybourn which is set in London in 1889.  Lady Julia Brisbane and her husband Nicholas Brisbane investigate the murder of a medium, Madame Seraphine, who holds seances for exclusive guests.  Brisbane is an "enquiry agent" who investigates many matters and Lady Julia is determined to be more than a partner in love, but also help her husband with his enquiries.  She little realises the dangers she may face by "helping", much to the frustration of her husband.  Their investigation leads to clues that espionage is involved and they must unravel the mystery to ensure they will both be safe. 31/2/5
