The Lady Grace Mysteries

tv/film

books

Witty high-stakes storytelling based on our long-running Working Partners book series of the same name

Meet Lady Grace Cavendish, not just any teen but the world’s first teen girl spy, navigating the dangerous waters of royal politics while dodging assassination attempts on her beloved Queen.

Orphaned but fearless, Grace has spent her youth outwitting palace guards, avoiding the responsibilities of being a lady-in-waiting, and, most importantly, finessing the fine art of swiping jam tarts. When Queen Elizabeth I, her godmother, asks Grace to be her eyes and ears at court, without telling shadowy spymaster Lord Walsingham, Grace’s life transforms from hijinks to high-stakes intrigue.

With her loyal friends – the savvy servant Ellie and the dazzling performer Masou – at her side, Grace has to deal with the tribulations of being a teenage girl at the court of England while investigating perilous mysteries.
