Publisher Description

Once again, the twin Tribble sisters, Amy and Effie, take an awkward young lady into their charge to transform her and present her on the London social scene as the best any bachelor could ever hope for.

This time it's Harriet Brown, the prim and proper daughter of a Methodist minister. The sisters are confident they can find Harriet a worthy vicar or two by season's end, provided they keep away the rakish gambler Lord Charles Marsham…

ABOUT THE SERIES The Misses Tribble, Amy and Effie, spinster sisters of a certain age, have lived for years on expectations of a great inheritance. When this fails to materialize, they are truly destitute.

Desperate, they advertise that they will refine wild and unruly daughters, present them, and see them safely wed. The School for Manners six book series follows these two stalwart spinsters as they undertake enterprises of matchmaking and navigate the troublesome machinations of the London marriage mart.
