Death on Blackheath

Description

When a mutilated body is discovered on Blackheath, Thomas Pitt is drawn into a case that reaches far beyond a brutal murder. His investigation leads to a respected naval weapons expert whose carefully ordered life is beginning to unravel—and to a dangerous conspiracy hidden among London’s privileged circles. Set against the glittering wealth and rigid social hierarchies of Victorian England, the novel explores power, secrecy, corruption, and the cost of loyalty. With its atmospheric period detail and steadily tightening suspense, it offers a compelling addition to the Thomas Pitt mystery series.
