Miss Hannah Pym worked her way up from scullery maid to housekeeper in Regency England, and often looked from the windows of the rooms she cleaned and saw the “Flying Machines” –the stagecoaches — carry passengers to what she imagined must be wonderful adventures.
When she came into a bit of money, Miss Pym determined to travel on the stage herself and have some adventures of her own. In this, the final book of the Traveling Matchmaker series, she falls in with French refugees, spies, and fashionable gossips, nearly losing her life in the process.
Will the lovely Yvonne marry the dashing Marquis of Ware? Well, of course she will. That doesn’t make this slim volume any less a pleasure to read.
