edge wear to dust jacket; some edge wear/bumps to boards/corners; Val Montgomery, young, warm-hearted, and confident - but no lady according to the grandes dames of New York in the 1880's - had abandoned a promising job on a newspaper and a claustrophobic engagement to a society lawyer and sailed to England to help her half-brother, Nils, whose wife had fallen ill. http://www.scrybepress.com/images/kb003136.jpg

Dido Twite's sharp wits are put to the test in this new adventure in the Wolves Chronicles. After King Richard dies, Dido's good pal Simon is put on the English throne, but he hates being cooped up in drafty St. James Palace, and his crusty old advisers won't let him have any fun at all. If only another descendant of the king could be found, Simon would gladly be replaced. Never short a solution, Dido discovers a lead to another member of the royal line. But no one knows exactly who--or where--the child is. masterful storyteller Joan Aiken once again invites readers into a spellbinding world of magic, mystery, and mayhem--with a dose of ""proper"" English hilarity, of course. http://www.scrybepress.com/images/0440420377.jpg
