By Y.S. Lee
Publication date: August 2010
From the author's website:
July 1859. A bricklayer falls to his death from the Clock Tower of the Houses of Parliament – the most recent horror in a string of scandals that plagues the building site. With the British people eagerly watching the installation of Big Ben, Mary Quinn disguises herself as a 12-year-old boy laborer to uncover the grim truth. Her fellow workers are suspicious. Mary’s secret past distracts her. And then James Easton returns…
This is book two in the Agency spy series set in Victorian London. I just read and reviewed A Spy in the House and I absolutely loved it so I can't wait to read the next book. I am just on a roll reading spy books this year!
What exciting books are you anxiously waiting for this week?
oh nice pick! I actually just posted my review today for book #1 LOL I can't wait to see what happens to Mary - and for James to return!
ReplyDeleteoh another Y. S. Lee book need to read the A Spy in the House and keep on the lookout for this one too.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for this one too! The only problem with reading a brand new book like Agency 1 is that then I have to wait for book 2 to come out. I hate waiting.
