About the book
London, 1812. The cruel murder of eight young prostitutes in a shelter near Covent Garden only spares one survivor - Hero Jarvis, the daughter of Lord Jarvis, a relative of the Prince Regent. When her father dismisses any official investigation to protect her reputation, Hero decides to seek the truth on her own and enlists the help of Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin.
In a fragile partnership, Hero and Sebastian follow the clues from the grimy brothels of London's East End to the luxurious homes of a prominent family with hidden secrets. Putting their lives and reputations at stake, they must hurry to prevent a killer whose dangerous plan could shake the nation to its core.
