Prudence starts a new series with the daughters of Ivy and Alexia of the Parasol Protectorate series. Prudence is the main star of the book but Primrose [Ivy’s daughter] is right there lending her a helping hand when trouble starts. Lord Akeldama sends his Prudence off in high style to India to investigate some new tea. Along the way with leaving early, Prudence gets mixed up in something she knows nothing about but everyone else thinks she does. With her unusual powers she is able to do a lot more and protect herself better than her mother could when trouble starts. The book has a nice tight ending and even though there are more planned you are not left with a horrible feeling of loose ends.
Fans of the previous books with like all the quick cameos of previous people in the series and new readers will see a well fleshed out world filled with lots of hints of back story for them to discover by reading the previous books. Can’t wait for the next one in the series.
