She also has a good friend from her school days who lives in London and takes her out to some parties.Ī man comes to the door one day looking for Binky. They have a special bond and he tells her how to start fireplace fires and get the boiler running. Georgie has a grandfather who lives in London. Luckily for Georgie, her father had married a commoner. She gets to London with very little money and must figure out how to live by herself and not freeze or starve in the family house. While this might sound great – she’ll get away from Fig – the problem is that she doesn’t know how to do anything. Georgie heads off to the London house by herself. Binky’s wife, Fig, has convinced him the Georgie should not receive any allowance and she wants her to leave the estate in Scotland. The death taxes that he had to pay meant that he had to sell part of the estate and live very frugally. Her brother, Binky, inherited the family estate in Scotland and the house in London. Her father, the Duke of Glen Garry and Rannoch, shot himself after he lost all his money gambling. She was raised to be a proper English Lady and has come out to society but did not find a husband. The narrator is Lady Georgiana, who is 34 th in line for the throne. It is the time between World War I and World War II. The first book in the series is Her Royal Spyness by Rhys Bowen. Which tells you that either the book is popular or lots of people saw the same thing I did and got to the library site ahead of me. I don’t remember how I heard of this series but I know that when went to the library to reserve the eBook that it took a long time to get it.
