Anne Perry's acclaimed Charlotte and Thomas Pitt books have made London's exclusive world of riches and electric power an addictive literary destination for listeners just about everywhere. This masterpiece, a haunting tale of love and treason, invites us not only into the secret places of Britain's electric power but also into the innermost sanctums of the fin de siècle Austro-Hungarian Empire. Thomas Pitt, once a lowly policeman, is currently the powerful brain of Britain's Special Branch, and many people fear that he may have been promoted beyond his expertise. He, too, seems painful moments of self-doubt, especially as gossips reach him of the plot to blow up links on the Dover-London rail series - on which Austrian duke Alois Habsburg is soon to travel to visit his royal English kin. Why would anyone eliminate an entire teach to wipe out one obscure Austrian royal - or will be the rumors designed to distract Pitt from an even more devastating storyline? He must solve this riddle simultaneously, before the destruction is done. On the other hand, in a London sickroom, an old Italian female - at the end of an enchanting job as a cutting edge spy - is terrified that as she sinks into dementia she may divulge secrets that can wipe out. And a beautiful young Croatian female, committed to a United kingdom electric power broker, hoards her own mysteries. Evidently, all highways lead to the Continent, and Pitt suspects that between them these two attractive women could simply tell him things he frantically must know. But as the time tick by, it appears that the only female Pitt can count on is his brilliant wife, Charlotte. No one sustains mesmerizing suspense better than Anne Perry. In Pitt's trial by flame, his wrenching moral issue, and his electrifying moment of decision, the much loved best-selling author gives us a climax never to be forgotten.
