An undercover assignment for the Bow Street magistrate sees Lizzie Hardwicke trade Mrs. Farley's Bawdy House in Soho for life as a seamstress at a theatre on Drury Lane. Once there, she quickly realizes that what goes on in the wings is much more intriguing than the theatrics being played out onstage...
When a high-profile investor is brutally hanged at center stage, Lizzie discovers the body and is once again thrown together with William Davenport, the magistrate's assistant with whom she is growing ever closer. The suspect list rivals any casting call, and Lizzie must use every trick hidden up her sleeve to see through all the performance and bring the culprit into the spotlight.
The second instalment of the gripping and vividly imagined historical mystery series set in 18th century London, from the author of acclaimed historical novel The Dazzle of the Light. Perfect for fans of The Household by Stacey Halls and Daughters of the Night by Laura Shepherd-Robinson, as well as readers of Laura Purcell, Sarah Waters and Diana Gabaldon.
