Dr. Julia Lewis #3
In 1867 London, the Isle of Wight was a holiday destination, one even favored by the royal family. Queen Victoria had a home there and was often in residence. In our story, Dr. Julia Lewis is vacationing on the Isle of Wight with her grandparents and missing and wondering about Detective Richard Tennant, who has been abroad and on the hunt for a villain for months. She hasn’t heard from him and alongside worrying that he’s OK, she’s also worried that she was too forward, and that he doesn’t feel about her as she does about him.
