A Rational Proposal by Jan Jones

When spirited Verity Bowman is left a sizeable legacy by her uncle on condition that she spends six months “in a wholly rational manner”, neither she nor her long-suffering attorney Charles Congreve have any idea where it will lead them. Nor, it has to be said, does anyone else.

Set in Newmarket and London, ‘A Rational Proposal’ is the fifth Newmarket Regency by Jan Jones and the first in the Furze House Irregulars series featuring women of spirit, women of courage, women who don’t see why, in this male-dominated Regency era, they should not also play their part in bringing wrong-doers to justice.
