A Rogue's Company by Allison Montclair
The Right Sort Marriage Bureau is flourishing, with new clients, new offices, and a new secretary. Proprieters Iris Sparks and Gwendolyn Bainbridge are slowly starting to get their heads above water. But Gwen's life is disrupted when her father-in-law returns from Africa with his own plans for her son, including boarding school. At the same time, a new client with his own agenda signs on with the company. A murder and a kidnapping force Iris and Gwen to seek help from friends of Iris' underworld boyfriend.
This is Sparks and Bainbridge #3. It's an entertaining mystery series set right after World War II. The peripheral characters are highly entertaining. Gwen is kind of irritating and wishy-washy but she's getting better.
