About
Make hell for leather and stop a vicious killer from striking again.
During a hospital visit, Lady Violet Thorn overhears a young woman accusing a married couple of her parents' murder and stealing their home, Maccabee House.
Macabre events soon unfold, and the town of Montford is in meltdown. Body parts appear around town, whispers of a cannibal spread, and a sex worker is found brutalised. Then, Violet receives a mannequin of her own likeness, stabbed through the heart.
Violet knows that the answers wait at Maccabee House, which lies in the shadow of the old tannery. But with the killer's sights firmly on her, can she make it out alive?
An enthralling and gripping Victorian crime caper from the bestselling author of the Gower Street Detective series, perfect for fans of Anthony Horowitz, M. C. Beaton, and Oscar De Muriel.
