A bestselling author.
A missing manuscript.
The readers of London are raging...
The popular but reclusive author E.C. Spruce has outdone himself with a delicious new three-volume novel, "The Fifty Shades of Udolpho", and all of London—including Annabel and the Lady Patronesses of Almack's—are devouring it. That is, until the third volume begins vanishing from bookshops and bedside tables alike, leaving readers desperate to know how the story ends.
Suspecting supernatural forces are at play, Annabel and the Ladies investigate the literary loss. A clever trap reveals an unexpected (and smelly) culprit, but it appears that plot twists aren't always reserved for the page. Will they be able to bring the thieving mastermind to justice? And could the Marquis of Quinceton actually be more of a help than a disconcerting hindrance?
The Vanishing Volume is the second installment in The Ladies of Almack's series by Marissa Doyle.
