Synopsis
'I have a great many faults, but I am not lazy, and I am not timorous - though that, I know, is not a virtue, for I was born without any nerves at all. . . ' When the redoubtable Sir Horace Stanton-Lacy is ordered to South America on diplomatic business he parks his only daughter, Sophy, on his sister in Berkeley Square. But Sophy's cousins are in a sad tangle. The heartless and and tyrannical Charles is betrothed to a perdantic bluestocking almost as tiresome as himself; Cecilia is besotted with a beautiful but quite feather-brained poet; and Hubert hass fallen fowl of a money lender. It looks like the Grand Sophy has arrived just in time to serve them all. . .

Review
"My favourite historical novelist -- stylish, romantic, sharp, and witty. Her sense of period is superb, her heroines are enterprising, and her heroes dashing. I owe her many happy hours." (Margaret Drabble)
"Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic. Georgette Heyer achieves what the rest of us only aspire to." (Katie Fforde)
"A writer of great wit and style ... I've read her books to ragged shreds." (Kate Fenton Daily Telegraph)
"Sparkling." (Independent)
