The Miser of Mayfair

The Miser of Mayfair by M.C. Beaton Audiobook 5 hours Book 167 pages

Hooray another series by my favorite British author! This go around we find ourselves at the address 67 Clarges Street, which rumored to be unlucky, due to the many tragedies that seem to happen to its inhabitants. This home is a home for the London season where young ladies are presented to find husbands.The rent is quite reasonable and appeals to those who are cheap but do not want to appear so. Be that as it may, the servants of this home are hoping and praying (literally) for someone generous to be the tenant that will treat them well as they are tired of the tyrannous ways of the manager, Mr. Palmer. Roderick Sinclair's brother has died and instead of leaving him his fortune he left him his ward, a beautiful girl named Fiona. The book is a tale of the exploits of this pair as they try to get Fiona married to a rich member of the gentry, with the help of the servants of 67 Clarges Street.
