1851 Sees the death of Sir Gerald Hawke at Hawke Court, the last of his line, his heir is clergyman Meridith Case. But there is a ward, Sapphire Hawke, who inherits jewellery in the will but she disappeared twenty years ago. Can she be found.
Meanwhile in London Felix Graham has been murdered, his father was known to Dickens, and so he feels obliged to investigate. But what secrets will be discovered, and how many deaths will occur before the answer is revealed.
Another enjoyable well-written historical mystery with its very likeable characters. A good addition to this series.
