Boston Jacky: being an account of the further adventures of Jacky Faber, taking care of business by L.A. Meyer
audiobook read by Katherine Kellgren
That rascal Jacky Faber is back in town--Boston-town, that is. Her shipping business is nearly broke, her Irish friends are unwelcome, and her true love Jaimy still hasn't returned from an extended stay in the Orient. Undeterred, Jacky buys the Pig and Whistle Inn to save it from bankruptcy and this raises the ire of the Women's Temperance Union...and her own dearest friend.
Can Jacky's impulsive nature be tamed before she ends up back in Judge Thwackham's court?
Maybe. Maybe not.
I'll only give one spoiler: the thing with Jaimy is definitely not untangled in this book. For more details, you'll have to read it yourself.
Recommended for fans of the series, ages 14 to adult. Some cussing, some violence (mostly off-page). As always, the audiobook edition read by Katherine Kellgren is superb.
Thanks for including Jacky in your mix.
