Wagering is all the rage in late Victorian England. Some bets are innocent, like the color of dress a lady will wear to a ball. Other wagers are much more nefarious. Oscar Wilde bets that actress Olivia Snow can fool a group of country bumpkins into believing she is Genevieve Lamb, the wealthy beauty of the recent Season. The weekend will prove a challenge for the old-fashioned actress and Genevieve’s handsome and old-fashioned brother Philip who vows to keep the actress safe. To the surprise of Olivia and Philip, the manor is filled with all sorts of ridiculous and eccentric characters, as well as one murderous criminal. When Olivia is accused of murder, she will need to use all her acting skills to go in disguise to discover the true murderer. While Olivia pretends to be Genevieve in the country, Genevieve pretends to be Olivia in the city--a wager she may regret making. Genevieve, Oscar Wilde, and Lily, Olivia’s clever young friend, go out on the town, a decision that will have them wishing they’d stayed at home and played cribbage.These two charades take unexpected turns during a wild weekend of kidnapping, cucumber sandwiches, bee stings, and love. This Oscar Wilde-esque romance-mystery-comedy will keep you guessing--and craving teacake.
