Gripping and provocative, the latest Thomas and Charlotte Pitt puzzle by New York Times best-selling publisher Anne Perry peers unflinchingly in to the corrupt affairs of Victorian population on the brink of the century's change. The globe is poised for interpersonal and political change, but Great britain holds small to its practices, classes, and prejudices. When an explosion in London eliminates two policemen and very seriously injures three more, many believe that anarchists are the culprits. But Thomas Pitt, commander of Special Branch, recognizes the city's radical groupings well enough to suspect in any other case: that someone with decidedly more personal motives lit the fatal fuse. As he investigates the foundation of the fatal blast, he's stunned to find the bombing was a computed strike up against the ranks of police. But still more stunning revelations await as Pitt's queries lead him to an associate of Parliament longing for a profitable business deal, a high-ranking officer with secrets to keep and an aristocratic opium addict seeking murderous revenge. As he pursues each progressively more threatening lead, Pitt confirms himself impeded at every change by the barriers put in location to protect the rich and powerful - barriers which, as they start to crumble, threaten to bury him alive.
