In the glittering salons and smoky clubs of London's high society, one name provokes both admiration and unease: Lady Jim of Curzon Street. Stunningly beautiful, fiercely intelligent, and undeniably mysterious, she walks a fine line between propriety and notoriety-never quite welcome, yet impossible to ignore.When whispers of financial fraud and illicit affairs begin to circle around her, Lady Jim finds herself in the eye of a storm far more dangerous than gossip. Accused of crimes she may or may not have committed, she must rely on her cunning, charm, and an array of unexpected allies to clear her name or at least protect her interests. But with every step forward, new truths come to light, and the line between victim and villain becomes increasingly blurred.In this brilliantly constructed psychological and social drama, Fergus Hume-author of the international sensation The Mystery of a Hansom Cab-delivers a sharp, suspenseful novel that explores the masks people wear and the sacrifices they make to survive in a world where reputation is everything. Lady Jim of Curzon Street is a vivid portrait of ambition, duplicity, and the high price of independence in a world ruled by wealth and appearances.
