The new mystery novel in the evocative Victorian crime series starring
the charming March Middleton and the most curmudgeonly private detective
in London, Sidney Grice.
Gower Street, London: 1883.
March Middleton is the niece of London's greatest (and most
curmudgeonly) private detective, Sidney Grice. March has just discovered
a wealthy long-lost relative she never knew she had. When this newest
family member meets with a horrible death, March is in the frame for
murder--and only Sidney Grice can prove her innocence.
Grice agrees to investigate (for his usual fee) but warns that he is not
entirely convinced of her innocence. If he were in her position, he
might have been tempted. But the more he uncovers, the more all the
clues point to Grice himself . . .
