Summary

The twentieth mystery in the bestselling Inspector Pitt series, by the master storyteller of Victorian society, Anne Perry

Half Moon Street (Thomas Pitt Mystery, Book 20) Summary

Half Moon Street (Thomas Pitt Mystery, Book 20): A thrilling novel of murder, scandal and intrigue by Anne Perry

The body lies reclined in a punt, clothed in a torn dress, head thrown back in a mimic of ecstasy. It is a feminine pose but the body is distinctly male. The case already reeks of scandal and the body is not even cold. Pitt is the natural choice to investigate what he soon realises is the most unnatural of killings.
