Bored and with nothing better to do, Lawrence delves into the recent murder of Emily Dimmock. But Emily was not the only woman to die under mysterious circumstances. As Lawrence discovers more suspicious deaths, an old enemy returns, threatening the lives of all he holds dear. Meanwhile, the killer is moving in and will stop at nothing to fulfil his destiny. Can Lawrence unmask him before others die?This intricately plotted Edwardian murder mystery is based on a true crime.
