Once again Anne Perry proves that she is the undisputed queen of the Victorian murder mystery. This novel, part of the Hester Lattely/ William Monk series, captures perfectly the flavor and manners of the Victorian era. Hester is accused of murdering her patient, a delightful and prominent elderly woman, and is tried for murder. It's a roller coaster ride as Monk pulls out all the stops to prove her innocence and to save her from the hangman's noose. It's a riveting story of family, the Victorian justice system, and attitudes towards women in Victorian England and Scotland. Simply excellent. Great color and detail. Settle down and enjoy!
