In Victorian England, Esther Hardy refuses to accept her limited choices of marriage or servitude as a governess. Instead, she will defy society’s rules to solve two murders.
When a dying woman with a dark past appears on her doorstep, Esther is thrust into a dangerous mystery. The tragic victim, long suspected of killing her aristocratic lover, has now been murdered in a brutal attack in a London graveyard. To unmask the killer, Esther must battle both underworld villains and secretive elites, especially the enigmatic gentleman whose role in the intrigue is unclear. Is he trying to help or hinder the inquiry? And why is Esther strangely drawn to him? In a city shrouded in deception, she must risk everything to protect her family and prove herself as a detective—or lose all.
