"[A] delightful hot toddy of a winter's read." —LA TIMES It was
the best of times, it was the worst of crimes in this delightful
Dickensian romp, with the canonical author teaming up with a famous
upstart to solve a devilish murder. In Victorian London, Charles
Dickens and his protege, the renowned author Wilkie Collins, make
the acquaintance of the shrewdest mind either would ever encounter:
Inspector William Field of the newly formed Metropolitan
Protectives. A gentleman's brutal murder brings the three men
together in an extraordinary investigation that leads Dickens to
the beautiful young actress Ellen Ternan. Almost immediately, she
becomes the love of his life. But first, Dickens must protect her
from the noose, as she is the main suspect.
