About Etiquette & Espionage
Fourteen-year-old Sophronia would rather dismantle clocks and climb trees than practise proper etiquette, so her mother sends her to Mademoiselle Geraldine’s Finishing Academy. The floating school teaches far more than dancing and dress: its pupils also study diversion, espionage and deadly self-defence. Sophronia soon discovers that becoming a lady may require surviving secrets, danger and a remarkably eventful first year.
