Murder at Madame Chambon's by Beverley Oakley
Paris-educated Evelina Chambon has no idea her mother is London’s most infamous brothel madam.

When Evelina arrives in the capital to make her debut in the spring of 1883, she quickly becomes society’s darling, choosing as her future husband wealthy shipping magnate Lord Dunstable over dangerously charismatic Lord Childers.

Evelina cannot afford to involve her heart in as important a matter as her marriage.

But when Lord Dunstable is found dead in Madame Chambon's private sitting room at her High Class House of Assignation, and Madame Chambon is charged with his murder, Evelina’s future teeters on a knife edge.

Can those with intimate knowledge of the young women who work at the brothel, and the aristocratic gentlemen who frequent it, protect Evelina from social ruin, if not the truth of her parentage?

Former spiritualist Lily Bradden, who now works to secure respectable work for the "fallen women" at Madame Chambon’s, and her new husband, newspaper proprietor Hamish McTavish, are prepared to stake their reputations—and Evelina’s—on solving the case of who really murdered Lord Dunstable. And why.
