Private detectives Grand & Batchelor's latest case draws them
into the arcane world of high art and high society in this
compelling Victorian mystery. London. May, 1878. Private enquiry
agents Matthew Grand and James Batchelor have been hired by the
artist James Whistler to dig into the past of outspoken critic John
Ruskin, with whom he has an ongoing feud. Not particularly
optimistic of success, the two detectives are sidetracked from the
investigation by the murder of a prostitute in nearby Cremorne
Gardens. Her body posed on a park bench, a book on birth control
sitting on her lap, Clara Jenkins is not the first young woman to
have met a similarly grisly fate - and she won't be the last. Could
there be a connection between the Cremorne killer and their art
world case? With the investigation heading nowhere fast, Grand
comes up with a decidedly unorthodox plan to ensnare the killer.
But even the best-laid plans have a nasty habit of going
catastrophically awry ...
