The Lady's Guide To Petticoats And Piracy

Beskrivelse

Felicity Montague is back in this eagerly awaited follow-up to the bestselling The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue. Determined to become a doctor, she embarks on a daring journey across Europe, using her cleverness to overcome the obstacles in her path.

A bold adventure of ambition and disguise in pursuit of a medical career.

After a whirlwind grand tour with her brother Monty, Felicity returns to England with two clear goals: avoid an unwanted marriage proposal from a suitor in Edinburgh and gain admission to medical school. Despite her sharp mind and strong passion, the male-dominated world of science refuses to accept her.

Then, a chance arises when a doctor she admires is set to marry an old friend in Germany. Felicity is convinced that meeting him could change her future, but she lacks the funds for the trip. Fortunately, a mysterious young woman offers to cover her expenses-on one condition: Felicity must let her travel disguised as her maid.

Though wary, Felicity agrees, only to find herself drawn into a dangerous quest. Their journey takes them from the German countryside to the elegant promenades of Zurich, and finally to hidden secrets beneath the Atlantic.
