Leeds, England. October, 1891. An unclaimed parcel at the Central
Post Office is discovered to contain the decomposing body of a baby
boy. It's a gruesome case for DI Tom Harper. Then a fire during the
night destroys half the railway station. The next day a woman's
body is found in the rubble. But Catherine Carr didn't die in the
blaze: she'd been stabbed to death - and Harper has to find her
killer. The estranged wife of a wealthy industrialist, Catherine
had been involved with the Leeds Suffragist Society, demanding
votes for women, the same organization for which Harper's wife
Annabelle has just become a speaker. Were Catherine's politics the
cause of her death? Or is the husband she abandoned behind it? But
when her brother escapes from the asylum and steals a shotgun,
Harper has to race to find the answers.
