A Sudden, Fearful Death: A William Monk Novel

A Sudden, Fearful Death: A William Monk Novel

In a London hospital, Prudence Barrymore, a talented nurse who had once been one of Florence Nightingaleâ€™s angels of mercy in the Crimean War, meets sudden death by strangulation. Private inquiry agent William Monk is engaged to investigate this horrific crimeâ€“which intuition tells him was no random stroke of violence by a madman.

Greatly helped by his unconventional friend Hester Latterly, another of Miss Nightingaleâ€™s nurses, and barrister Oliver Rathbone, Monk assembles a portrait of the remarkable woman. Yet he also discerns the shadow of a tragic evil that darkens every level of society, and a frightening glimmer of his own eclipsed past.
