A Spy in the House by Y.S. LeeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
It's a bit uneven, but (a) conscious emphasis on strong female characters, and the frustrations of women in the Victorian period -- in a non-clichéd way; (b) the heroine is half-Chinese. In the end that made for a different sort of read, which was interesting.

And she had a skirt that unfolded into a grappling gun and ladder, and she had a dirigible and a trusty French man-servant. So that helped.
It would have!
