About the book
Facing financial difficulties, prim Verity Pymbroke agrees to move in with her elderly neighbors Miss Iris and Miss Hyacinth and lease out her own London house. She is horrified though when her neighbors secure notorious rake Lord Carrisworth as her new tenant. However, Iris and Hyacinth think Verity and Carrisworth would make an excellent match, an opinion shared apparently also by Empress, their haughty cat.
