Murder in Grosvenor Square: A Regency Historical Mystery
About this audiobook
Cavalry captain Gabriel Lacey returns to Regency London from the Napoleonic wars to begin solving crimes that go unnoticed by the Bow Street Runners, which take him from the mansions of Mayfair to the backstreets of London's rookeries.
I begin the Spring of 1818 preparing for a duel. But while I focus on the affair of honor, darkness, greed, and death stalk the streets of London and bring tragedy to a family I have grown close to.
With the aid of Lucius Grenville, London’s most famous dandy, and Brewster, a ruffian employed by an underworld criminal, I explore a world unknown to me. My investigation takes me from the elegant mansions of Grosvenor Square to the squalid lanes of Seven Dials, to taverns that practice a highly illegal trade, spelling ruin and possible hanging for those caught within.
I am once again caught in the games of James Denis, and all that appears to be simple becomes far more complex in the deadliest way.
