Lizzie's youthful 'spies' discover a distressing secret well-hidden by local authorities. It's the end of 1805 and Lizzie and Quon find their busy lives taking a disturbing, yet exciting, new direction. Meanwhile, they find new ways to utilize the Napoleonic Wars to increase their income.
The Lizzie Series continues as Canadian author, J. Robert Whittle, introduces the first sequel to his popular debut novel, " Lethal Innocence" picking up at the exact moment this book ends in 1805 London, England. Lizzie Short returns from her first big adventure, presumably accomplished to aid the long-suffering British people's efforts during the Napoleonic Wars. We learn more in Book Two as this sometimes precocious (now 12 year old), oftentimes aggressive, yet adoringly selfless, enterprising young heroine, discovers a distressing secret hidden by local authorities. The ensuing involvement of Lizzie and her cohorts, the gypsies and various young people, adds an exciting new direction to this historical adventure series.
