The Rogue You Know (Covent Garden Cubs) - Plot & Excerpts
Brook said, his eyes dark with his usual skepticism. Dorothea shifted her gaze from the disheveled Bow Street Runner who had just entered her drawing room, back to Brook. Her younger son had been born a skeptic. Perhaps that was what made him so good with puzzles. Dorothea refused to call Brook an investigator. She chose to overlook the fact that her son kept an office in the same building as the Bow Street Runners and was hired to find missing persons and stolen property. The younger son of the Earl of Dane did not have a profession. To her mind, this sort of investigatory work was a hobby. One at which he excelled. The Runner glanced at her then clutched his hat against his chest. He wore a shabby coat and a stain on his trousers. His face was unshaven, and she had all but yelped when Crawford had shown him into the drawing room. She thought he’d been a rogue until Brook had greeted him.
