I really enjoyed the first book in the World's End Investigation Bureau, a Victorian mystery series. This one, for some reason, was less intriguing.
from description: "London, 1881. Lily Raynor, owner of the World's End Investigation Bureau, is growing increasingly worried. Work is drying up, finances are tight and she cannot find enough for Felix Wibraham, her sole employee, to do. When schoolteacher Georgiana Long arrives with a worrying tale of runaway pupils, it seems like the answer to her prayers. The case is an interesting one, and what could be less perilous than a trip to a girls' boarding school, out in the Fens?"

I love Victorian mysteries. It's always a bummer when the follow-up doesn't live up to it's predecessor. Hopefully the next one will be better. :)
