About this ebook
It’s time to party like it’s 1820, and you know what that means. Rout cakes and punch, satins and silks, and flirting on the balcony under a star-washed sky. Decorous. Genteel. Lovely.
Nobody knows who’s throwing this bash, but who cares? It’s the party of the century, and everyone who’s anyone is going to be there.
Including, astonishingly, the Werths. Famous recluses they may be, but who can resist a mystery and a waltz?
Not that everyone’s on their best behaviour. There’s a jewel thief in the wings with an eye for diamonds, and somebody’s been mad enough to turn Gussie loose, to boot.
It’s going to be a party to die for. Hopefully not literally, but with the Werths, you never know…
The weird and wonderful Werths are back — and letting their hair down in style! WARNING, this adventure contains: cotillions and cravats (complicated); jewels and jokes (scintillating); and the undead and the unwed (misbehaving, as usual). Fetch your dance card and your shoe-roses and join the fray…
Don't miss the previous adventures of Werth, in:
Wyrde and Wayward
Wyrde and Wicked
Wyrde and Wild

About the author
English both by name and nationality, Charlotte hasn’t permitted emigration to the Netherlands to change her essential Britishness (much). She writes (mostly) feelgood fantasy over copious quantities of tea, and rarely misses an opportunity to apologise for something. Ace and HSP, history buff and gamer, baker and voracious reader, she loves few things so much as peace and quiet, long walks, and really good cake. Her whimsical works include the House of Werth series, the Wonder Tales and Modern Magick. Her short fiction has also appeared in Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar anthologies.
