Murder at the Gasworks by Lisa M. Lane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1860 London. When stoker Joe Carter is discovered dead, poisoned, 10 year old Tommy Jones, is arrested. Sergeant Slaughter is convinced he is innocent and continues the investigation only to discover a previous death of another stoker. Is there a connection between them, and what of the strange happenings at the Bank of England.
An entertaining and well-written historical mystery with its cast of likeable and interesting characters. A good start to this series.
