The 19th century is drawing to a close and women's roles?and their clothes?seem to have gotten less constricting. Vanessa Weatherburn's passion for science and mathematics, once an embarrassing oddity, is now quite nearly fashionable, and she has been asked to help the police in their inquiries in her capacity as a private investigator.

Or are the newfound female freedoms merely a thin veneer on the same old societal expectations?
