by Anne Perry (Author)
The second novel in the ever-popular series of Victorian whodunits featuring Thomas and Charlotte Pitt, here appearing for the first time in UK paperback. Murders just didn't happen in fashionable, respectable areas like Callander Square -- and yet, there had been two in a short space of time. The police were baffled. But Charlotte Pitt was curious. Inspector Pitt's well-bred wife had not formed the habit of meddling in her husband's business, but something about this case intrigued her -- to the point where she found herself prying into the intimate secrets of the very rich, hearing backstairs gossip that would shock a barmaid, and unearthing truths that could push even the most proper aristocrat to murder.
