Publisher's Synopsis
Evil lurks in the streets of Victorian London... As Inspector Ben Ross of Scotland Yard walks across Tower Bridge the fog swirls around him like a living beast. Reports that a figure known as the River Wraith has been terrorising young women on nights like these give Ben cause for concern, and rightly so. By the time the fog has lifted a woman lies murdered in Green Park. Allegra Benedict was the beautiful wife of a renowned art dealer, but why had she been selling her brooch in the Burlington Arcade just hours before her death? Investigations reveal more than one reason why someone might want her dead...
