When Valeria Brinton marries Eustace Woodville, both families object strongly. Before long, Valeria realizes that they may have been right to voice their concerns.

Although Eustace was not found guilty, the court was unable to find sufficient evidence to exonerate him. Determined to clear her husband's name and proveto herself and everyone elsethat he is innocent, Valeria takes the sleuthing into her own hands.

Widely considered to be the 1st story featuring a female detective, *The Law and the Lady* is an intricate and classic tale.
