The Debutante's Code by Erica VetschMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
Regency, spies, and Bow Street runners met up to deliver a fun, interesting mystery of stolen art pieces and murder.
I absolutely adored Juliette and Daniel and happy to see that this series will continue their adventures and clue solving skills. There are also a few characters from the Serendipity and Secrets series popping up. Juliette’s uncle created quite a few lighter, humorous scenes.
I liked how the author included faith as a natural part of the characters’ lives and how their questions and concerns were relevant to the situations they found themselves in.
I have no idea who Daniel’s benefactor is, but looking forward to finding out who it is and why all the secrecy.
Twists and turns made this story one you did not want to put down and all the characters were delightful to get to know.
The audible book was well done and so entertaining, I loved every second listening to the story.

All the while, she has to keep her endeavors a secret from her best friend and her suitors--not to mention nosy, irritatingly handsome Bow Street runner Daniel Swann, who suspects her of a daring theft.
