After five years of tracking and capturing spies on English soil, Philip Jonquil, Earl of Lampton, is in pursuit of his last quarry. But at a traveler’s inn, he encounters an unexpected and far more maddening foe: Sorrel Kendrick, a young lady who is strikingly pretty, shockingly outspoken, and entirely unimpressed with him. Indeed, Sorrel cannot believe the nerve of this gentleman, who rudely accuses her of theft and insults her feminine dignity. Doubly annoyed when they both end up at a party hosted by mutual friends, Philip and Sorrel privately declare war on one another.

Constantly stifled by the rules of Society, spirited Rebecca Rowley enjoys finding ways to quietly - or not so quietly - rebel. But riding bareback and avoiding nosy neighbors are nothing compared to the thrilling secret she is keeping from her family. When Rebecca’s quick thinking saves the life of a young girl, she unwittingly attracts the attention of the child’s dashing brother, Lieutenant Nicholas Avery.

To add insult to injury, Athena’s brother-in-law and guardian, the Duke of Kielder, has asked Harry to assist Athena in finding the gentleman of her dreams. But the lovesick Harry is cunning as well: as the weeks pass, he introduces Athena to suitors who are horrifically boring, alarmingly attached to their mothers, downright rude, astoundingly self-absorbed, and utterly ridiculous.

Publisher's Summary
A gentleman scribes penny dreadful novels by night and falls in love with a woman who is a music teacher by day - and a thief at night.
London 1865
From the moment Hollis Darby meets Ana Newport, he’s smitten. Even though he’s from a wealthy, established family and she isn’t, he wishes he could have a life with her by his side. But Hollis has a secret: the deep coffers that have kept his family afloat for generations are bare, so he supports himself by writing penny dreadfuls under a pseudonym. If not for the income from his novels, he would be broke.
Ana Newport also has a secret. Though she once had a place in society thanks to her father’s successful business, bankruptcy and scandal reduced his fortune to nothing more than a crumbling town house. So Ana teaches music during the day, and at night she assumes the identity of the “Phantom Fox”. She breaks into the homes of the wealthy to reclaim trinkets and treasures she feels were unjustly stolen from her family when they were struggling.
When Hollis’s brother needs to hire a music tutor for his daughter, Hollis recommends Ana, giving him a chance to spend time with her. Ana needs the income and is eager for the opportunity to get to know the enigmatic gentleman. What neither of them expects is how difficult it will be to keep their respective secrets from each other.
When a spree of robberies rocks the city, Ana and Hollis join forces to solve the crimes, discovering that working together deepens the affection between them. After all, who better to save the day than a gentleman and a thief?

Another delight!
WHAT IT'S ABOUT A gentleman scribes penny dreadful novels by night and falls in love with a woman who is a music teacher by day—and a thief at night. MY TAKE I love this series so much. Eden creates such fun yet deep characters. This second edition in The Dread Penny Society once again provides us with three stories for the price of one. And I was rooting for the characters in all three stories. Hollis and Ana were introduced in the first book, and it was obvious then that they were interested in each other. Not only did we get to see the development of an interesting start to their courtship, but we also got a deep looking into both of their histories and their families. And both kind of broke my heart. There's romance, action, and intrigue. This particular story is resolved but the overall mystery hasn't been solved. For me, it's the perfect kind of cliffhanger. I'm not left frustrated but rather intrigued and looking forward to the next installment. I listened to the audiobook and Justine Eyre was wonderful as the narrator. As usual.

This story was amazing! I loved the characters and the way that it was three stories in one. I loved the mystery and intrigue in one story along with the sweet innocence in another. The romance was lovely and the ending left me hopeful for more to come.

Delightful, Entertaining and Whittie
What a treat! I love the different stories interjected into the main story. I hope there will be sequels to this very charming book. Sarah Eden is one of my favorite authors and Justine Eyre is icing on the cake with her performance. It also draws to our attention the abuse our children around the world suffer, but does it a way that I don’t become depressed for days. Children living on the streets is and has been all over the world. They have been bought and sold and abused beyond comprehension. The Dredge Penny Society in this novel takes on the challenge of rescuing these little street urchins A must read or listen to.

THIS NARRATOR HAS AN IRRITATING TWANG IN HER VOICE
This is a continuation of the Penny Dreadful books, with the secret author this time being one Hollis Darby - a titled man- (his real name - not his pseudonym) This organization is mostly made up of men - one woman - who, no matter what their status - some are titled men, one even American(!) write under a different name and keep their real identities a secret. Unbeknownst to Hollis, he falls in love with the "Phantom Fox", a woman thief - who is stealing what belonged to her family, when she and her grandfather - as the only remaining ones left in her family- from those who took them when her family fell from society's grace, and became poor. Hollis falls in love with Ana but doesn't tell her right away. When all comes out in the open, they are asked to break up a gambling ring across the street from her house, where titled men are playing and losing at high stakes. They reluctantly agree, and after much worry and strife, do so. To me this book was very predictable - and a real fantasy. A titled man falling in love with a woman whose family in now poor, although a former "society" member??? I doubt very much that would happen. It was wrapped up clean (which I do like) but so predictable on the way to it's conclusion!

Failed to recapture the magic of book 1...
Great narration as always from Justine Eyre, and good writing from Sarah M Eden, as I’ve come expect only... where the previous book was fresh and new and magical, this one tried to tell the story in exactly the same manner. This made it predictable and nowhere nearly as enticing or odd as before. As a consequence I never felt drawn to the characters, their budding romance, or their personal development. Maybe if the series continues she’ll shake it up a bit. The first book is still a must listen/read.... this one is a major miss sadly! Never thought I’d say this about Eden.

Unbearable narration
I managed to last 16 minutes of this. I’m sure it’s a great book but the narration is just so bad! The girly Sloane-ranger voice and upwards intonation at the end of every (and I mean every) sentence had me feeling physically uncomfortable. Im pretty sure this is how our PM’ s latest partner sounds. Ghastly darling.
