Murder in St. Giles: A Regency Mystery (Captain Lacey Regency

Murder in St. Giles: A Regency Mystery (Captain Lacey Regency Mysteries Book 13)

London, 1819: When Brewster, my bodyguard, comes to me about a murder of a pugilistâ€”and whatâ€™s more, says his wife has summoned meâ€”I must hasten to St. Giles to find a killer before Brewster is arrested for the crime.

This is made difficult because Donata's late husbandâ€™s odious cousin has materialized to try to wrest her son into his care. After all, seven-year-old Peter is a viscount, and his cousin wants to get closer to the title.

But how close? If Peterâ€™s life is in danger, I must remain, but Brewster risks hanging for the death of his wifeâ€™s brother-in-law. Heâ€™s done too much for me to turn my back on him, but the devil if Iâ€™ll let the Breckenridge cousin get his clutches on Peter.

It will take all my perseverance, and a few wiles, to plough through these difficulties. In the meantime, I meet a Runner who teaches me about crime and punishment in this enlightened age, and Brewsterâ€™s old trainer, who made him the excellent pugilistâ€”and thiefâ€”he is today.
