“The Agency for Scandal is glorious!
Clever, funny, charming, and achingly romantic, it is a delight
from start to finish. Laura Wood always writes about love and
friendship with a deft hand, and this is her best work yet”
Katherine Webber, author of Twin Crowns

“A brilliant, fun-filled romp” The Scotsman



An all-female detective agency righting wrongs at the
end of the nineteenth century; infiltrating a scandalous upper class
world straight out of Bridgerton and using their wit and bravery
to unmask a villain.
When Marigold Bloom finds her family business in trouble a chance
encounter with the devastatingly handsome and extremely bad-tempered
Oliver Lockhart leads her to the Aviary - a secret agency
of women who specialise in blackmailing troublesome men.

Soon, Mari is the agency's newest recruit, sent to investigate the
mysterious return of Oliver's long lost sister. Forced to masquerade
as a newly engaged couple, it is up to Mari and Oliver to determine
if there is an imposter in their midst. But what happens
when the line between truth and fiction starts to blur? And what
do you do when a pretend romance starts to feel all too real?
