Opis

Poor William Halsey. An impoverished younger son, his one chance for riches are dashed when his racehorse, The Miller of Dee, is found dead under mysterious circumstances. Then the chief suspect, a wealthy Chester silk merchant, is poisoned a short while later and suspicion naturally falls upon the young man. But would Mr. Halsey really murder the father of the woman he loves, the beautiful Miss Emily Steele? Or does the key to the two killings lie elsewhere in Chester, that bustling English market town famous for its eerie Medieval Rows and restless ghosts of fallen Cavaliers? In this new Regency mystery featuring Bow Street Runner Theo Bryght, he encounters not only dark passions and devastating secrets, but also a second chance to win the love of his life, Lady Charlotte Ashe.
