I AM RIVETED. The Lady Sherlock series is so smart and clever and witty.-Julia Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of the Bridgerton series
Only Charlotte Holmes--aka Sherlock Holmes--could solve a puzzling murder case that implicates her friend, a Scotland Yard inspector, in this locked-room Victorian mystery from the USA Today bestselling author of A Study in Scarlet Women. Inspector Treadles, Charlotte Holmes's friend and collaborator, has been found locked in a room with two dead men, both of whom worked with his wife at the great manufacturing enterprise she has recently inherited. Rumors fly. Had Inspector Treadles killed the men because they had opposed his wife's initiatives at every turn? Had he killed in a fit of jealous rage, because he suspected Mrs. Treadles of harboring deeper feelings for one of the men? To make matters worse, he refuses to speak on his own behalf, despite the overwhelming evidence against him. Charlotte finds herself in a case strewn with lies and secrets. But which lies are to cover up small sins, and which secrets would flay open a past better left forgotten? Not to mention, how can she concentrate on these murders, when Lord Ingram, her oldest friend and sometime lover, at last dangles before her the one thing she has always wanted?
