Description
With a divisive parliamentary election approaching in Victorian London, political passions threaten to spill into violence—and a secret society is determined to manipulate the result. Commander Thomas Pitt of the London police is drawn into a dangerous investigation that reaches from the corridors of power to the private intrigues of high society, while his wife, Charlotte, brings her own insight and connections to the case. As Pitt becomes the target of a powerful enemy seeking revenge, he must navigate conspiracy, corruption, and class conflict before the election plunges the country into crisis. Rich in period detail and psychological tension, this suspenseful mystery explores the fragile relationship between political ambition, privilege, and justice.
