Charles Shilling, empathetic genius and amateur sleuth, has no love for the aristocratic system and it doesn’t much love him. A scruffy and rebellious anarchist, he keeps out of trouble with the law by solving more crimes than he commits. But this latest case is the worst he’s ever faced. Shilling is at a loss and, if he wants to save lives, he needs help.
Amelia Florin, brilliant medical student and noblewoman, is desperate to stop the killer. Every new victim makes her feel like she’s the one being hunted, and Shilling is the only person who values her insight. Endearingly roguish, she is certain she can overlook his social standing to work with him. Unless the disapproval of her elitist fiancé lands them both in the killer’s sights first…
Can they stop the murderer before it’s too late, or will they be the next victims?
