Jayne Ann Krentz has selected a suitable pseudonym; her novel reads quickly. Her story involves a bright young woman, Iphiginia Bright, who poses as the mistress of a roguish Earl in order to ferret out the identity of a blackmailer who is threatening members of the ton, Regency's high society. Iphiginia's guise becomes reality when the man she is feigning a romance with suddenly returns to Regency London from his country estate.
