Lee, Y.S. The Traitor in the Tunnel (Agency #3), 373 p. Candlewick, 2012. $17. Language: PG (3+ swears).
Mary Quinn has been sent to Buckingham Palace to root out a thief. But when the Prince of Wales witnesses a murder in an opium den, her job becomes much larger – and touches upon Mary’s own past. While fending off the Prince, Mary must solve two different mysteries and foil a plot to kill the Queen.
I do love books that give vivid descriptions of historic time periods and Lee is spot on. She dishes up a great mystery and a little romance into a tidy package. I wish more students were drawn to this kind of book.
