Henrietta Jones: Lady Alfred Kindle Edition

The year is 1913. Lady Henrietta Jones or ‘Harry’ is wild, confused and out of control. She desperately wants to learn to fly, but the only man available is dark flawed and scowling, an old fashioned brute.

Hostility rapidly turns into a battle of the sexes. He reacts with fury to this modern girl who lies through her teeth. She treats him with contempt because he has victorian views on votes for women, and a despicable way of moving his hips.

Harry is a high achieving girl who drives a sports automobile much too fast and plans to become a suffragette. She also desperately wants to fly one of these amazing new wood and canvas flying machines.

When she rescues annoying aircraft maker Lord Jack Hackett from potential death, they provoke the other to madness with a series of outrageous lies. After she steals his plans to an experimental flying machine, he is forced to chase the dreadful girl across Europe to get them back.

She secretly invests in his company. She would like him to believe in the potential of women, and wins a bet tricking him into attending a suffragette meeting. She even wonders whether she should turn him into a suffragist, but then everything starts to go wrong.

They uncover a plot involving aircraft being sabotaged and pilots killed. The head of the conspiracy is an mysterious female without a conscience, and with unerring male instinct, and no evidence, Jack decides it must be Harry.

Following an accident when she is nearly killed, she goes into hiding to protect the stubborn idiot, and transforms into the dangerous and scheming male Lieutenant... Alfred Pugh-Jones ...Lady Alfred.

Jack appears broken by Harry’s reported death, and turns to the beautiful but devious Odette Therese von Paradis. Events become impossibly tangled. Odette and Harry concoct fantastic schemes to destroy each other.

More aeroplanes crash though sabotage. A flying machine competition, which is important for England's future, is collapsing, and pilots keep getting killed. Meanwhile Britain is heading helplessly towards war without a modern aeroplane.

Harry in her disguise as a thrusting young male army officer rises to the challenge, and decides to sort out the whole awful mess. She browbeats potential prime minister Lloyd George into providing help, bullies the best designers in England into creating a world beating aircraft, and still has time to help a ridiculous flawed man.

Two stubborn individuals are caught helplessly in an emotional firestorm. Both will need to compromise, face their own failings and acknowledge a deeper truth, but they will probably be killed before then...

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

CST Harding grew up on the western slopes of the Malvern Hills, and then experimented with computers and banking before settling down to write novels about outrageous women in Victorian England.

He spends his time split between Sevenoaks and Bath, where he does much of his writing on a narrowboat with the help of the odd glass of wine.

History has always been his first love. He took a degree in archaeology, and has travelled widely with a particular fascination for historical sites. A high spot was Everest Base-camp.

His other love is romance and has always preferred heroines with attitude. He became an author partly to write about rebellious girls who can change the world in outrageous plots, and women who can burn a path through life and hang the consequences.

For more information see https://cstharding.com or on Facebook under cstharding. He loves feedback which helps with future novels, and will reply to all communications.

3.0 out of 5 stars Historical FICTION
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2021
Verified Purchase
Do not read this as historically accurate fiction. The anachronisms are rife and the incredibly nasty supposedly intelligent female leads are rude and dismissive of their male counterparts. The science is poorly rendered. The chess games are all buzz words. Possibly one of the worst books I have ever read. I got so irritated with all the mistakes it spoiled any enjoyment of the storyline. If you're still interested in reading this mess. Go for it. However, please be aware that most references to math, aeronautical principles, science or chess are mostly bogus. Probably most junior high students could do a more credible job with a little research.

In 1913 England. Good story, but too much daredevil for my tastes. Numerous spelling errors.
