The Spirited Mrs. Pringle

London, 1888. Upon the death of her husband, self-involved social climber Cora Pringle assumes her recent dalliance with a wealthy gentleman will be her second chance at a happily ever after. That is until her paramour turns out to be a penniless imposter. Despite his betrayal, Cora can't quite let go of the tug the handsome playwright has on her heart. Desperate for an income, Cora becomes a séance-performing spiritualist and gets a taste for celebrity-and it's so delicious.
So what if she can't actually communicate with the dead? Her eager patrons don't need to know that. Amelia Baxter, an ambitious journalist and suffragist, is discouraged when her editor refuses to let her cover the horrific Jack the Ripper murders. Instead, Amelia pours her frustrations into bringing Cora's deceptive and manipulative act to an end, even if it means risking her family's reputation. "Like the most memorable of its vividly drawn characters, The Spirited Mrs.
Pringle is clever, lively, and unabashedly entertaining. Perhaps most enjoyable of all is the seemingly endless series of surprises. A string of sometimes astonishing pleasures to the last page." -Award-winning author Leo McKay Jr. A great read for fans of Deanna Raybourn and Jennifer Ryan!  As a lover of historical fiction novels, The Spirited Mrs. Pringle does not disappoint.
