Belgrave Square

Description

When an obscure moneylender is found murdered, Inspector Thomas Pitt is drawn into a case with few mourners—but potentially many powerful enemies. A list of distinguished names discovered among the victim’s papers suggests blackmail, and the investigation soon reaches into London’s most privileged circles, where reputation, ambition, and hidden corruption collide. While Pitt pursues the evidence through the city’s darker corners, his wife, Charlotte, uses her access to high society to uncover the passions and secrets the police cannot see. Set against a richly rendered Victorian London, this tense and atmospheric mystery explores the dangerous interplay of power, wealth, and scandal.
