Murder always sells. But when a series of dark and puzzling crimes
takes place in seventeenth-century London, will printer's
apprentice Lucy Campion be publishing the news - or starring in it?
London, 1667. Printer's apprentice Lucy Campion is unsettled when,
on a frozen December morning after church, an elderly woman dressed
in mourning clothes whispers an ominous warning in her ear. Lucy
sternly tells herself it's nonsense, but then her much-loved former
master, Magistrate Hargrave, is viciously attacked with a brass
hourglass during a break-in. But what exactly was the intruder
searching for? And why did they first stop to steal a piece of
Cook's lamb and lentil pie? The puzzling case is just the start of
a series of dark, bizarre crimes. Lucy's determined to uncover the
truth and see that justice is done. But someone is equally
determined to stop her - whatever it takes. This page-turning
historical mystery set in Renaissance London is a great choice for
readers who like their heroines lively, their mysteries twisty and
their historical settings brimming with authenticity.
