Murder at Half Moon Gate

Late one night The Earl of Wrexford and his friend Christopher Sheffield stumbled upon a body after a night of gambling.  The following morning the widow came to him to ask that he investigate the killing of her husband.

The Earl turns to his friend Charlotte Sloane, also known as the political cartoonist, A. J. Quill, for help.  She had helped him solve a murder recently, which had seen him falsely accused of.  A symbol had been carved into the belly of the victim; Charlotte is sure that she had seen it somewhere before, but where?

It is Sheffield who recognises the handwriting on a note sent to the victim inviting him to a meeting.  Could this be their killer?  They soon find out that the man who wrote the note was paid to do it.  They are off on another track, only to find another dying man who gives them a different clue.

It is the following day that one of the potential suspects goes missing.  Is he a killer or has something else happened to him?  However, it is an intruder in Charlotte’s home that turns a new light on the case.

Is anyone safe from those with murderous intent?  Can Charlotte and Wrexford discover the culprits behind the devious schemes before more people die?  Author Andrea Penrose has written another fast paced thriller set in the Regency era, which will have the reader engrossed from beginning to end.
