At birth, Violet and Rose Flowers were identical, save for a tiny bluish-purple mark gracing Violet’s slender neck. By nineteen, their temperaments distinguish them, as different as the flowers their mother named them for—Violet, wild and outgoing, and Rose, solitary and reserved. Still, they are each other’s world. Then, on a sweltering, terrible August night in 1928, an explosion rocks Lamb’s Dance Hall in Possum Flats, Missouri, engulfing it in flames, leaving one twin among the dozens dead, and her sister’s life forever changed.

Story
London, 1894. Albertine Honeycombe never wanted a husband and certainly not the one with fifteen children that her cousin, Aubrey, is trying to marry her off to. She reinvents herself as Countess Von Dagga, a private detective aiding the upper echelons of women in society. As the Countess, she is a married woman, with a conveniently absent husband who doesn’t exist, which allows her far more freedom than being single. When Lord Grendel, from whom she has recovered blackmail letters, is murdered, Albertine is suspect number one—having been the last person to see him.

Story
When a German pilot bails out into the town square, members of the Housewives League are more intent on salvaging the parachute than capturing the enemy. The pilot escapes, and shortly after, the body of a Land Army girl is discovered. Blame falls on the missing pilot, but Lady Elizabeth believes otherwise and sets out to prove it. Meanwhile, her forbidden attraction to the charming American major, and her attempts to placate the hostility between the Yanks and the Brits, complicate her already challenging life.
