From the Back Cover
Murders just didn’t happen in fashionable, respectable areas like Callander Square – and yet, there had been two in a short space of time. The police were baffled. But Charlotte Pitt was curious.
Inspector Pitt’s well-bred wife had not formed the habit of meddling in her husband’s business, but something about this case intrigued her – to the point where she found herself prying into the intimate secrets of the very rich, hearing backstairs gossip that would shock a barmaid, and unearthing truths that could push even the most proper aristocrat to murder.
