Lady Petra Forsyth, daughter of the Earl of Holbrook, has made a shocking proclamation. After losing her beloved fiancé in an accident three years earlier, she announces in front of London's loosest lips that she will never marry. A woman of independent means--and rather independent ways--Petra sees no reason to cede her wealth and freedom to any man now that the love of her life is gone. Instead, she plans to continue enjoying the best of society without any expectations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut when ballroom gossip suggests that a longtime friend has died of a fit due to her \"melancholia\" while in the care of a questionable physician, Petra vows to use her status to dig deeper. Just as Petra has reason to believe her friend is alive, a shocking murder proves more danger is afoot than she thought. And the more determined Lady Petra becomes in uncovering the truth, the more her own headstrong actions and desire for independence are used against her, putting her own freedom--and possibly her life--in jeopardy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Celeste Connally\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 125086755X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250867551\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minotaur Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/14\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.57h x 5.75w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2023 pg. 3\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/28\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2023 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/13\/2023 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/24\/2023","brand":"Celeste Connally","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44132176199935,"sku":"9781250867551","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e20603cb-0868-420a-b08e-5987645b9376.jpg?v=1687478678","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/act-like-a-lady-think-celeste-connally-9781250867551","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
