Notice About Books The Traitor in the Tunnel (The Agency #3)

Mary is undercover posing as a maid in Buckingham Palace, trying to find a thief. Her assignment isn't going as well as she'd like and there is tension in the Agency complicating matters further.To make matters worse, James Easton is back unexpectedly and Mary suspects that (view spoiler)[the Chinese man that got arrested for the murder of a nobleman (hide spoiler)] is her long lost father.Conspiracies, an immature prince and not nearly enough support for Mary, who is struggling to complete her

Three and a half stars: A book with a little something for everyone: mystery, romance, history and thrills. Mary Quinn is working undercover on her first real assignment. She is posing as a parlor maid in Buckingham Palace. Mary in actuality is a secret agent working for an agency that employs all women spies/ detectives. Mary is sent to the palace to try and track down a thief. Someone is stealing small artifacts from the palace. While performing her daily duties, Mary unwittingly stumbles

Blergh. This one really didn't work for me. It was just too... much. In other words, nothing about this felt realistic.-Mary and James' fight at the start felt contrived, and for dramatic purposes only-The setting felt over the top (Mary is investigating shenanigans at Buckingham Palace of all things). I mean, sure, some of the stuff with Queen Victoria was a bit fun, but also, really over the top-The whole sub-plot with the Prince of Whales was just ick. She's a sympathetic and attractive maid

This series continues to be entertaining with well-developed characters and excellent plots. The mystery in this one, the thefts from the palace and the lurking about in the tunnels, is somewhat secondary to Mary's personal mysteries and actions. Not that that is bad, it's just that solving the mystery isn't central to the story, although it is the central story.Without going into much detail, I loved how this one ended. I would have liked Mary to get to know more about her heritage and why

This installment of YS Lee's excellent historical romance-mysteries is, in my opinion not quite as tightly plotted as the last two, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. If I could, it would get 3.5 stars. Mary is, as always, intelligent, courageous and impulsive. Her thoughts always take more of the center stage than the actual mystery, and in this one, the mysteries are numerous and a bit confusing. They don't end up being related, which was disappointing. And as for James...well, at the

This is a young adult novel I was granted access to through Netgalley with thanks to them. It is the third book in a series, but the only problem with that is that I want very much to read the first books and don't have them yet. (This also appears to be called The Traitor and the Tunnel - for the original Canadian edition, perhaps?)Mary Quinn is undercover. She is twenty years old, and a part of an extraordinary intelligence agency, and posing as a maid in Queen Victoria's household. And I
