From the Book jacket:
For no apparent reason, someone has been digging up the corpses of recently deceased citizens and setting them up in public places. Several of these high-profile crimes are followed by the discovery of the body of an actual murder victim - one Godolphin Jones, a society painter who also appears to have dabbled in pornography and blackmail. Pitt's efforts are fruitless until (as always) his quick-witted wife drops a startling hint.
"Perry adds to her atmospheric thrillers, setin Victorian London.... Startling .. .
incredible and shocking."
- Publishers Weekly
"Sturdily constructed, agreeably atmospheric diversion for period-mystery fans." - Kirkus Reviews
"When Anne Perry puts Thomas and Charlotte Pitt on the case, we are in exemplary Victorian company."
- New York Times Book Review
