Lord Langley is Back in Town
“Never think that just because they slept in your bed and held a tendre for you once, they won’t take off your hand at the least little provocation.Advice to Felicity Langley from her Nanny Brigid “If you do not stop pacing about, I will shoot you myself,” Minerva told Langley, who continued to wear a path in front of the hearth despite her warning. “You are supposed to be on death’s door.”They’d taken refuge in her bedroom, with only her trusted staff in the house: Mrs. Hutchinson, the woman’s daughter Mary, and of course Agnes. Mr. Mudgett had been sent over to ensure that the nannies were well settled at Hollindrake House, and set Staines to rights if the duke’s butler protested.This left the house uncharacteristically quiet, which was unnerving in itself.“I will be dead if I don’t find a way to uncover the truth about Brownie and his lot.” Langley paused and glanced at the painting hanging over his bed, cringing at the lopsided folly.Or was it just a reminder of his own folly?
