An East End Murder

From the acclaimed author of the Charles Lenox series of mysteries comes a riveting short story of death and detection on the East End.

It's the end of winter 1865 when Lenox agrees to investigate the death of Phil Jigg, a beloved neighborhood regular, found strangled on Great St. Andrews Street. In a case that takes him through the noisy vendors and pickpockets, the rough-and-tumble back alleys and local pubs of the Seven Dials, Lenox looks for answers in a place that couldn't feel more foreign from his West End home—and where his presence is anything but welcome.

The answer comes in the person of someone so ruthless and brutal that those who could help Lenox are terrified into silence.

This is a delightfully vivid addition to the Charles Lenox series.
