Death at the Devil's Tavern by Deryn Lake
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1755 John Rawlings and his friend Samuel Swann are celebrating at the Devil's Tavern. During the night his sleep is disturbed, and discovers a body. A body that has been retrieved from the Thames. His curiosity gets the better of him and he examines the corpse. He identifies it as Sir William Hartfield, the bridegroom who was suppose to have married earlier that morning.
He is requested by Fielding to investigate the death.
An enjoyable and well-written mystery
