The man who lies bleeding to death in a London brickyard is no ordinary drifter but a secret informant with details of an international plot against the British government. Special Branch officer Thomas Pitt, hastening to rendezvous with him, arrives seconds after the knife-wielding assassin—who, in turn, flees on an erratic course that leads Pitt in wild pursuit to picturesque St. Malo on the French coast. Meanwhile, Pitt’s supervisor, Victor Narraway, stands accused of embezzling government funds. Since the man who ruined Narraway’s career is in Ireland, Pitt’s clever wife, Charlotte, agrees to pose as Narraway’s sister and accompany him to Dublin to investigate. But unknown to Pitt and Narraway, a shadowy plotter is setting a trap that, once sprung, could destroy not just reputations but the British empire itself.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Anne Perry

Anne Perry nasce em Outubro de 1938 em Londres e viveu no estrangeiro durante alguns anos, antes de se instalar na sua actual casa em Portahomack, na Escócia.
É considerada uma das mais conceituadas escritoras da literatura policial das últimas décadas. No centro das suas histórias encontra-se a Inglaterra vitoriana, fechada como um casulo, num conjunto de rígidas regras de conduta social.
Escreve duas séries distintas, uma protagonizada por Thomas Pitt, um detective da polícia de origem social modesta, e por Charlotte, uma jovem de boas famílias, e a outra pelo detective amnésico William Monk. Ambas as séries são inspiradas em personalidades da época e os casos em que os detectives se envolvem conservam reminiscências de crimes realmente acontecidos.
Anne Perry desvenda-nos, de forma magistral, todo o complexo universo vitoriano.
