Set in turn of the century London, The Friday Society follows the stories of three very intelligent and talented young women, all of whom are assistants to powerful men: Cora, lab assistant; Michiko, Japanese fight assistant; and Nellie, magician's assistant. The three young women's lives become inexorably intertwined after a chance meeting at a ball that ends with the discovery of a murdered mystery man.

It's up to these three, in their own charming but bold way, to solve the murder–and the crimes they believe may be connected to it–without calling too much attention to themselves.

Set in the past but with a modern irreverent flare, this Steampunk whodunit introduces three unforgettable and very ladylike–well, relatively ladylike–heroines poised for more dangerous adventures.

This was a good read. I enjoyed the interaction between the girls. I liked how the author showed us that people can understand each other without words.

On the way!!

This got here safely!

This was a fun book. I couldn't put it down once I started it. Thanks for sharing this with me Lemmy.

This was part of a "Blind Date with a Book!" release. The book was left wrapped in brown craft paper with a description written on the front and left in the Little Free Library.
