When a body is found at a society ball, Lacey's former colonel confesses to the murder and says it was because of the victim's offensive behaviour to the colonel's mistress. Lacey is not convinced and decides to uncover the truth.

Denis arranges for Lacey's wife and daughter to come to London together with the wife's new partner. Family drama ensues until Gabriella goes missing while Lacey is investigating why game girls are going missing. Now the investigation gets personal.
Interesting to get more of Lacey's back story and the relationships between the characters advance but the mystery itself seems just an excuse to show that everyone loves Lacey 1y
