Title : Dark Souls - Anne Perry - book
Summary :
Hester Latterly is hired by a wealthy Scottish family to escort an elderly woman to London. Her only instruction? To make her swallow her fragile heart medicine. On the train, Hester befriends her patient, administers the medicine, and then falls asleep. When she wakes up, the old woman has passed away. The autopsy reveals that it was poisoning, and Hester, accused of the murder, is imprisoned. All of the young woman's friends mobilize: Monk leaves for Edinburgh to investigate with the support of Rathbone, Hester, and Callandra. Together, they will eventually discover the truth... and much more.
This new investigation by William Monk gives Anne Perry the opportunity to provide us with a further illustration of the sometimes perverse ingenuity with which she explores the underbelly of 19th-century England.
