A Murderous Relation (Veronica Speedwell Series, Book #5) by Deanna Raybourn
Autumn 1888. Veronica Speedwell and her colleague Stoker are asked by Lady Wellintonia Beauclerk to stop a potential scandal so explosive it threatens to rock the monarchy. Prince Albert Victor is a regular visitor to the most exclusive private club in London, and the proprietress, Madame Aurore, has received an expensive gift that can be traced back to the prince. Lady Wellie asks Veronica and Stoker to retrieve it from the club before the scandal breaks.
Worse yet, London is being terrorized by what will become the most notorious and elusive serial killer in history. Jack the Ripper -- and Lady Wellie suspects the prince may be responsible.
Veronica and Stoker reluctantly agree to go undercover at Madame Aurore's high-class brothel, where a body soon turns up. Secrets are swirling around Veronica and the royal family -- and it is up to Veronica and Stoker to find the truth before it is too late for all of them.
