Nolan is anxious for Gideon and Elizabeth to help his daughter, Irene, acquire a bit of polish, now that his venture into thoroughbred racing has allowed them entry into society. He is also hoping to find her a rich potential suitor. Elizabeth is not exactly the society girl Nolan believes her to be, but she is eager to attend the races. Her con artist family has made a lot of money at racetracks, although not from betting on the horses, and she enjoys the excitement of the track. Irene Nolan seems more interested in horses than husbands, and she jumps at the chance to show Elizabeth her horse, Trench, and introduce her to his rider, Cal Regan. Elizabeth soon realizes there is more than just a working relationship between Irene and Cal. But she also knows that Irene's father would never allow his only daughter to marry a jockey. When Cal takes a terrible tumble, injuring both himself and Irene's beloved Trench, Elizabeth and Gideon learn that the mishap was not simply bad luck--the horse and rider are victims of sabotage. It turns out that Sebastian Nolan has more than a few skeletons in his closet and someone is out to get their long-sought-after revenge. Elizabeth knows that to help Irene and Cal, she is going to need some help in creating the quintessential con. With the ever-honest Gideon at her side, she enlists those closest to her to come up with a scheme that will either ensure young Irene and Cal a first-place finish or have disastrous consequences. . . ." $c Amazon.com. 650 0 $a Women private investigators $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Aristocracy (Social class) $z England $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Detective and mystery stories. 800 1 $a Thompson, Victoria $q (Victoria E.). $t Counterfeit lady novel. 941 $a 1 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20231230010051.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=18780EF2A6E111EEAD05C9A659ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
