ISBN: 9781616461126 / Angielski / Miękka / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume of 2 Detectives pairs two early "lady detectives" who showed that intelligence, investigative skills, and courage were not limited to those of the masculine variety. Loveday Brooke's undercover skills allowed her to blend into the background and gather intelligence without tipping off the suspects. She was the consummate professional, much appreciated by her boss, though she didn't always agree with him (and he didn't always understand her methods). These seven stories were published in 1893 and 1894. Lady Molly quickly worked her way to the top of Scotland Yard's female...
