June, 1815. Jealousy, revenge and a love that endures beyond the grave - against the backdrop of Regency England. Bow Street's Henry Morton is called to the scene of what is initially ruled an "accidental death". But Morton suspects foul play, and begins a discreet inquiry that will take him from the heights of London society to its teeming underbelly - with villains from both worlds determined to do anything to keep him from learning the truth. Recommended.
