The Christmas trees in Knightsbridge sparkle with festive joy, and there's nothing more fun than Christmas cocktail parties to ring in the new year of 1922.

Camille Divine, known as Lady Camille Divine, has decorated her little house in Birdcage Mews with glistening decorations and a beautiful Christmas tree, but she has more on her mind than the festive season. Lady Phoebe Carruthers has begged Camille and her maid, Cecily to investigate the disappearance of her personal maid. Women begin to disappear off the street, their bodies left under the Christmas trees that stand in front of London's most popular landmarks. Something links the women who have been murdered and Phoebe's maid, and Camille is determined to find out what the connection is before another woman is murdered.
She realises there is safety in numbers, that she can do so much more with a team of resolute women by her side, so she recruits some of our old friends, Carrie, Elsie, Dorothy and Ida to help her discover what happened to Phoebe's maid, and why so many women are being murdered in such a brutal way.
A novel in the 99 Nightingale Lane Publishing series.
'A wonderful portrayal of characters and the class system of Edwardian and Georgian England. I immediately liked Carrie and her best friend Pearl and felt empathy for the suffering so many women went through during that time. I read this book in one sitting as I couldn't put it down. Thank you Andrea for such a great read.' READER REVIEW

'Excellent series. Very realistic. People feel real. (the rest of the series is as good) Highly recommended.' READER REVIEW TOP 1000 REVIEWER

'I really enjoyed how this story was written.
Carrie is such a lovely character, such a sad life and yet you know this probably has some truth back in time.
Very well done, very hard to put this down.' READER REVIEW

One of the best fiction books I've read recently. Couldn't put it down until I finished all four parts.
Characters are very well described and you "feel" them and what they are going through. You either love them (Carrie, Ida, Pearl and so on) or you hate them (Arnold, Carrie's husband).
It is difficult to find books as easy and enjoyable to read as this series. READER REVIEW
