Brothels and backstreet­s

-

It’s 1782, and a young woman lies dead in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens. When the Bow Street constables drop their investigat­ion after discoverin­g the murdered woman was a notable courtesan, Caro Corsham takes the case into her own hands. From the author of 2019’s Blood & Sugar, this journey into Georgian London’s seedy underbelly is one for fans of Harlots or Ripper Street.
