about the book
Evil is masquerading in the halls of Parliament, and Sir Bertrand Thorndike is tasked with investigating from the inside. With his new position as a member of the House of Commons, he has access to the power brokers of English government. His tactic is to listen and learn, careful not to reveal his true motives, and he’s quickly inducted into the mysterious Theban Club.
Miss Philippa Cashel’s mission, the Princess Charlotte Eleos School for Women in Need, is thriving with donations, and the students are learning skills to help them earn their livings in honorable ways. But when a dear friend’s past is revealed by blackmail, Philippa must wrestle with the question, Is it ever right to do the wrong thing?
Bertie’s and Philippa’s missions collide when Bertie uncovers a dangerous plot involving vulnerable women. He and Philippa join forces against the corruption threatening to topple England’s government, all while navigating their outward reputations and inward feelings for each other.

review
spend more time with bertie and philippa in this second of cloaks & daggers book, a scheming in parliament!
bertie's adapting to his new position as a member of the house of commons, while philippa's focused on running the eleos school. of course, life has a way of becoming complicated, and bertie and philippa must work to uncover secrets and subvert nefarious plots before it's too late.
a scheming in parliament is an intriguing sequel to a thieving at carlton house, and i loved getting to see these characters again, their story is full of atmospheric history, suspense, and faith with hints of romance to come.
like the first book, it's definitely worth a read.
considerations:
—language: none
—spice: kisses only
—faith: strong themes and mentions
—content: death, illness, violence, mentions of drugs, kidnapping, and prostitution
