Detective Inspector Silas Quinn investigates one of the strangest
cases of his career...London, 1914. Called out to investigate the
murder of an employee of the House of Brackley, an upmarket
Kensington department store, Silas finds himself investigating one
of the most bizarre cases of his career. For the chief murder
suspect is a monkey. One of the store's fashion models has been
found dead on her bed, strangled with a red silk scarf. The room is
locked from the inside, the only other occupant being a monkey in a
red fez hat. While he is sceptical of the theory that the monkey is
the killer, Quinn suspects it holds the key to the mystery. But
where has it disappeared to? And how will he ever get to the truth
when faced with the maelstrom of resentment and thwarted passion
that is the mannequin house? A thrill-a-minute historical mystery
full of intrigue, perfect for fans of C. J. Sansom, S. G. MacLean
and Abir Mukherjee. Praise for R. N. Morris'A classic whodunnit
plot with emotion and psychological depth' Publishers Weekly 'A
challenging, utterly fascinating read' Booklist 'His sense of the
historical moment is strong' Kirkus Reviews
