Now one of these characters, Major Lord John Grey, opens the door to his own part of this world-eighteenth-century London, a seething anthill of nobility and rabble peopled by soldiers and spies, whores and dukes. Great Britain is battling France for supremacy on three continents-and life is good for a soldier.The year is 1757. On a clear morning in mid-June, Lord John Grey emerges from Londons Beefsteak Club, his mind in turmoil. A nobleman and a high-ranking officer in His Majestys Army, Grey has just witnessed something shocking. But his efforts to avoid a scandal that might destroy his family are interrupted by something still more urgent: the Crown appoints him to investigate the brutal murder of a comrade in arms, who may have been a traitor.Obliged to pursue two inquiries at once, Major Grey finds himself ensnared in a web of treachery and betrayal that touches every stratum of English society-and threatens all he holds dear. From the bawdy houses of Londons night-world to the stately drawing rooms of the nobility, and from the blood of a murdered corpse to the thundering seas ruled by the majestic fleet of the East India Company, Lord John pursues the elusive trails of a vanishing footman and a woman in green velvet, who may hold the key to everything-or nothing.The early days of the Seven Years War come brilliantly to life in this historical mystery by an author whose unique and compelling storytelling has engrossed millions of readers worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDiana Gabaldon\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67590372294944,"sku":"USED0385337477","price":25.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91JyEmQtfSL_98c57e3e-bdf0-4372-9302-1158f25cedb7.jpg?v=1790619484","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/lord-john-and-the-private-matter-0385337477-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
