When Julia, Lady Fieldhurst, returns from her sojourn in Scotland restless and out of sorts, her friend Emily, Lady Dunnington, decides what Julia needs is a lover. Lady Dunnington plans a select dinner party with half a dozen male guests from whom Julia may choose a paramour. Emily also invites a potential lover for herself: Sir Reginald Montague, a man whose urbane manner and dangerous good looks hide a host of unsavory secrets.Alas, Emilys little dinner is a disaster from the outset. Every gentleman at the table bears some unspoken grudge against Sir Reginald, and then dinner is interrupted by Emilys estranged husband. He and his lady have a heated discussion which ends with Lord Dunningtons vowing to put a stop to his wifes pursuit of Sir Reginald no matter what it takes. But the coup de grce comes at the end of the evening, when Sir Reginald is shot dead.Bow Street Runner John Pickett is summoned to Emilys house, where he is taken aback to find Julia. For in addition to investigating the case, he is faced with the awkward task of informing her that their masquerade as a married couple in Scotland (Family Plot) has resulted in their being legally wed. Beset by distractionsnot the least of which are the humiliating annulment process and the flattering attentions of Lady Dunningtons pretty young housemaidPickett must find the killer of a man whom everyone has reason to want dead.
