Three women hide in Big Ben, only two come out alive…
2 April 1911 is census night, when suffragettes hide overnight in parliament to force census takers to record it as their address – the only way women can have a place in government.
Coral Fairbanks, suffragette, actress, and artist’s muse, is among the women who break into parliament. What she doesn’t know is that Guy Flynn, artist and Scotland Yard detective, has been ordered to guard it that night.
When a suffragette hiding in Big Ben is poisoned, suspicion falls on the residents of two grand houses in Mayfair. The Kesbys are avant-garde artists, the Ashcourts are aristocrats fallen on hard times.
Once again, Fairbanks and Flynn put aside their differences to investigate an astonishing case of deception and murder.
A new historical mystery set in Edwardian London featuring the iconic detective duo Fairbanks and Flynn.
