A thrilling new series begins in 18th century London!
Perfect for fans of Andrew Taylor, S. G. MacLean, Michael Jecks and Laura Shepherd-Robinson.
Augustus Swift is a man conflicted...
1795, London
It is the age of the Enlightenment, yet political control is still firmly in the hands of the aristocratic landowners, as it has been for centuries. Augustus Swift is a physician who has studied modern medicine and logic at Edinburgh University. He is a humanist who looks to science to explain the world rather than religious beliefs. Yet fate raises a capricious eyebrow in his direction when he is recruited to undertake autopsies. His life is dedicated to the physician's ethical principles, but now, by working for the government, his actions are perpetuating the injustices of those in power. A series of cabinet members have been poisoned and the Home Secretary wants to know who is behind it and why. Swift, with his brilliant seventeen-year-old daughter, Cully at his side eventually agrees to take on this complicated task, but the closer they get to the truth, the more the danger mounts.
Who is targeting the cabinet? Is it someone with a personal grievance?
Or is there a wider conspiracy at play...?
