Lord John and the Private Matter - first US edition

by Diana Gabaldon - signed

The first book in a new trilogy featuring Lord John and many of the characters from the author's wildly popular Outlander series.

After accidentally observing a spot on Joseph Trevelyan's "privy member," Major Lord John Grey finds himself in a devilishly difficult position because Trevelyan is about to marry Grey's cousin, who has no idea her fiancé is infected with the pox. As he searches for a discreet way to confirm his suspicions, Grey is dragged into a different kind of investigation. British Army requisition papers have vanished in Calais, and Grey must find out if there is some connection between their disappearance and the recent murder of a possible spy Sergeant Timothy O'Connell.

Book has purple boards with a black cloth spine, title and author in gold; signed by the author on the title page.
