Death on the Doorstep: A Victorian Historical Romance Mystery - Paperback
Description
by Mary Lancaster (Author)
The gentleman and the vagrant - both dead on her doorstep.
Constance and Solomon return to London from their honeymoon - and straight into a very personal mystery. Not one but two bodies are discovered on the doorstep of her "establishment".
The rich man and the poor one appear to have no connection to each other or to the establishment, and Constance and Solomon suspect the bodies were put there on purpose to discredit her house of ill-repute - a suspicion that appears to be confirmed by other malicious incidents. But the greater mystery is how the men died and who killed one, if not both, of them.
Their investigations take them into the neighboring house of the wealthy victim's shocked family; and to the more dangerous areas of Constance's old life. Old secrets, blackmail, and stifling respectability rear their ugly heads. And for Silver and Grey, also, truth and protective instincts collide...
