The Tainted Snuff Box by Rosemary Stevens

Hardback, Very Good condition, non-smoking household

Genre: Historical Mystery

George Bryan "Beau" Brummell was an Oxford-educated gentleman without any aristocratic lineage or family fortune, but his friendship with the Prince of Wales helped elevate him. An independent man of independent means who desired the best of everything -- and got it -- he rose to become the leader of fashionable society by his wits and irresistible personality. His exquisite manner of dressing, disdaining of anything vulgar, and great appreciation of beauty combined with an extraordinary cool composure and rare charm define him as one of the truly unique characters in English history.

In Regency England, Beau Brummell stood as the uncrowned king of genteel society. Whatever he wore was the height of fashion. Wherever he went was the place to be. And the last place one would expect to find him was in the middle of a murder mystery. But then, Beau Brummell was never one to do what was expected...

After receiving a series of death threats by post, the Prince of Wales feels that some time spent away from London will calm his frazzled nerves. So he escapes to Brighton, where Beau Brummell joins him as a guest. With guards posted at every door, the atmosphere is tense -- even more so when the Prince's personal "food-taster" samples a new blend of snuff prepared by Beau's friend Petersham...only to keel over dead. Now, to clear Petersham's name of the attempted assassination, Beau will have to turn his quizzing glass on the crime...
