Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book 1st ed. Page edges lightly soiled else near fine in dj, light wear at head of spine. "Kellogg gives her Marshall Lilly Bennett series a breather to introduce something quite different: the adventures of portrait painter and scam artist Jacqueline du Fidelio, as told by her adoring butler, the amoral Nigel Weatherby-Smythe. As the tale begins, Nigel is visiting Jackie in prison, shortly before her scheduled execution. The rest of the book is Nigel's account of how Jackie wound^B up in jail for murder. Kellogg offers readers a double dish of pleasure here: seeing the world through Nigel's neurotic, hysterically funny eyes, on the one hand, and getting to know Jackie, on the other. Readers follow the pair through various adventures, most involving Jackie's ill-chosen lovers. When various members of her latest paramour's family begin to drop dead, suspicion lands squarely on Jackie. Only Nigel remains convinced of her innocence, steadfastly blaming all their troubles on "Madam's unsuitable men." A funny, clever, and original story..."---Booklist.

I really loved her books about retired jewel thief Kick Keswick. Those books really were wonderful. This book was nasty, could not warm up to any characters, the story was predictable and I am donating it to Good Will. Her other books I save for a re read in several years.
