Descripción editorial
When a murder investigation proves personal, he'll fight to protect his family. No matter what.
It's a rainy October in London, and it's been a year since Inspector Gabriel Bright's last major case landed in the papers. Since then, he's been enjoying time with his family and friends as well as taking low-intensity clients, but he misses the challenge of murder. When an odd string of killings vex Bow Street and grab headlines, he is summoned to Whitehall to lend a hand, especially since someone is trying to off his oldest son, Henry.
Though life is busy these days managing a house, wrangling two young children, and helping her husband on cases, Mary Bright is bored. Attentions from her husband have grown lackluster, and there hasn't been much excitement in the private investigation corner, until the night when her son-by-marriage breaks into their house with a fantastical story of being tracked by a killer. To make matters worse, through a bizarre twist, a would-be suitor of her niece's is connected to the case that has London society talking.
Each step the deductive pair makes leads them farther from the truth. Pressure from Bow Street keeps tensions high and worry about their family drives a wedge between Mary and Bright. As fear holds London in its grip and danger stalks the crime-solving duo from every direction, their relationship starts to splinter. It will take more than clues and questions to find the murderer, and unless they pay close attention to their neglected romance, everything they are working toward will crumble. Far too much hangs in the balance to give up, and that is not an option.
