Publisher's Summary

Superintendent Duncan Kincaid is called to investigate the shocking death of a woman found burned beyond recognition in a Victorian warehouse in south London. When his lover and partner, Gemma James, is asked to trace a friend's missing roommate, she and Duncan discover that their cases have several disturbing links.

Set against a backdrop of Dickensian Southwark, repository of old secrets, the case plunges Duncan and Gemma into the dark recesses of human relationships. Two women are missing, a little girl is abducted, and no one is really what they seem. The detectives must discover the truth, as innocent lives hang in the balance.

Always a great story

I like following the lives of the detectives and hearing of the history of England. Very entertaining and never too gory.

Fabulous Characters

Vividly written, believable characters really make the plot come to life. So that whereas in most crime novels, major characters primarily focus on the crime at hand, these characters live their lives while solving, or being impacted by, crime. I works. Mind you, that’s why there’s about a gizzillion books in the series. Ha.
