The first original novel inspired by the hit MASTERPIECE® Mystery! series Miss Scarlet and the Duke.

At the height of Victorian "Egyptian Mummymania," when illusion and obsession captivate London society, a discovery defies all reason—the body of a recently murdered woman found inside a sarcophagus sealed for thousands of years.

For Eliza Scarlet, the case offers a chance to prove herself once again in a world that continues to underestimate her, but as she delves deeper, she uncovers a troubling pattern—women vanishing, lives dismissed, and a mystery that reaches further than anyone is willing to admit. At its center is a name spoken in whispers: Jebediah Griffin.

As Eliza follows the truth into increasingly perilous territory, Detective Inspector William Wellington is never far behind. He is bound to her by loyalty, by history…and by something neither of them is willing to face. Each step deeper into the case tests not only their resolve, but the fragile line between partnership and something more. Historical Mystery Traditional Detectives Women Sleuths

As a fan of the Masterpiece’s Miss Scarlett and the Duke on PBS, this story followed the same characters in a thrilling murder mystery. It kept the characters personalities in the same theme. Very enjoyable
The narrator did an excellent job with character voice’s.

This tale is well written with several plot twists. A bit of the logic of a couple of the individual characters under duress is iffy, but that doesn't make it unrealistic. The enjoyability of the story is greatly enhanced by the performance of Kate Reading's narration. She does an amazing job of getting inside the heads of each of the characters and portraying them as characters with their own stories to tell. If you have seen the PBS show you will quickly see how well she has captured the characters that have been developed through the years. You will not be disappointed by her take on them. If you haven't watched the show, you are still in for a treat!

Well plotted with superb narration!
