London, May, 1911. The new king, George V, is preparing for his
coronation. The suffragettes are campaigning for women to get the
vote. The East End seethes with unrest. And 18-year-old Kitty
Challoner is looking forward to 'coming out' in London society. But
Kitty's secure, sheltered world is about to be torn apart. Lydia
Challoner is shot dead while out riding in Hyde Park, and during
the ensuing murder investigation Kitty discovers that there was so
much she didn't know about her mother. Was Lydia really the
killer's intended target? Is there a link to her Russian heritage?
Why had she been behaving so strangely in recent weeks? Was she
having an affair? As Kitty determines to uncover the truth and
wonders exactly whom she can trust, she learns that the household
in which she lives harbours a number of dangerous secrets.
