Read a sample Read a sample
'This book confirms Frances Doughty's reputation as one of the most likeable fictional detectives of the Victorian era.' - L.C. TYLER, author of the Elsie and Ethelred comic crime series and of the John Grey historical mysteries 'Death in Bayswater is another classic – deftly plotted with a rich cast of characters, a pitch-perfect sense of place and time and a deeply satisfying mystery.' - IMOGEN ROBERTSON, author of the Westerman and Crowther novels and Chair of the Historical Writers' Association LONDON 1881: Panic reigns in Bayswater as a ruthless murderer prowls the foggy streets of the nation's capital. Residents live in fear, rumours and accusations abound, and vigilante groups patrol by night. It is not, of course, a suitable investigation for a lady detective, but when a friend falls victim to the killer's knife, Frances Doughty is drawn into this sinister new case. Myth and reality collide in another thrilling mystery that will stretch Frances' powers of deduction – and her courage – to the limit.
