While investigating a suspicious death, private inquiry agent Ambrose Wells finds himself on the grounds of Aldwick Castle—and in the midst of utter chaos. The ramshackle castle is in flames—and a beautiful woman and four young girls are taking flight on horseback. It turns out that the strong-minded Miss Concordia Glade and her four bright students are on the run from a notorious London crime lord who’ll stop at nothing to destroy them. Now, their only hope is Ambrose, a confirmed loner with more than his share of secrets—and more than his share of desire for the unconventional teacher. And as Ambrose and Concordia risk everything to bring down a criminal mastermind, they will also be forced to battle something even greater: the steamy passion that threatens their hard-won independence…

I have just finished this book and as per usual I really enjoyed it. I have collected quite a few of Amanda Quick/Jayne Ann Krentz books and wouldn't trade any of them. I can hardly wait for the next book. I recommend these books to anyone who likes stories that switch from old England times to out times. It makes them quite interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting, amusing, romantic!
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2023
Verified Purchase
The three words of my title sum up this delightful adventure in Victorian England. A teacher, Cordelia, acquires four 15-year-old female students who are in a great deal of danger from unscrupulous men. She is obliged to be rather inventive to keep them from harm. Fortunately, she meets Ambrose, a gentleman and practitioner of Vancza who enjoys detective work. I wouldn’t dream of spoiling the story of their romance. Surely any reader who enjoys a romantic mystery will enjoy this novel by Amanda Quick!

5.0 out of 5 stars ヒーローは泥棒だったという異色の設定！
Reviewed in Japan on June 2, 2007

ヒーローＡｍｂｒｏｓｅが親子三代に渡る泥棒紳士だったという経歴が異色。
ヒロインＣｏｎｃｏｒｄｉａは結婚制度にとらわれない環境で育てられ、自分の学校を持つことを夢見る教師。
彼女の結婚観を逆手に取ったＡｍｂｒｏｓｅのクライマックスでの”願い事”は、ひとひねりあってロマンチックでした。　　
東洋の孤島ヴァンザガラにある庭園寺院の修道僧に伝わっていた瞑想法と武術ヴァンザは、もちろんアマンダ作品のオリジナル。
ＶＡＮＺＡのタトゥーが表紙になってますが、今回のストーリー展開にＶＡＮＺＡはそれほど関わりはありません。　
ＶＡＮＺＡシリーズでは本作品が一番好きです。
お馴染みタブロイド新聞“フライング・インテリジェンサーは、今回も重要アイテムとして登場します。
余談:今回登場する犬の名前は、♂；ダンテと♀；ベアトリスです。

5.0 out of 5 stars KIDNAPPING, MURDER, TEACHING
Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2020
Verified Purchase
5 STARS for Vanza Book 4 which takes place slightly towards the end of the Victorian Era in England. It is full of action with kidnapping, murder, on the run from mysterious bad men, & a wonderful teacher plus a bodyguard of mystery himself that provided a sense of security to 4 girls & a teacher. A.Q. gave a wonderfully rythmatic story that seemed to leap from the pages with delight. I thoroughly enjoyed it & hated when finished, I wanted more. Recommend.
