Publisher's Synopsis
January, 1892. Night. Fog. London. A cemetery. The police discover an abandoned hearse with an old coffin, with new nails. Inside the coffin is the body of a young, stylishly-dressed woman. Her throat has been slashed. The chase is on as Scotland Yard's best detective relentlessly pursues the evidence, even when it directs him toward Queen Victoria's family. Scotland Yard Detective Edward Willoughby, who "solves the unsolvable," pieces together a team of policemen who aid in making sense of the disjointed evidence. Follow them across London as they identify the victim and track down her killer.
