Nevertheless, she still enjoys her nighttime prowls in disguise through Londons streets, where one night she encounters an old friend, now a charity worker. Veronica Beaconsfield introduces Russell to the New Temple of God, led by the enigmatic, electrifying Margery Childe. Part suffragette, part mystic, she lives quite well for a woman of God from supposedly humble origins. Despite herself, Russell is drawn deeper into Childes circle. When Veronica has a near-fatal accidentand turns out to be the fourth bluestocking in the group to meet with misadventure after changing her willRussell and Holmes launch a quiet investigation. But the Temple may bring the newly rich Russell far closer to heaven than she would like. | ||
