With memorable characters, historical accuracy, exploration of social and ethical issues, and knife’s-edge suspense, Anne Perry’s acclaimed Victorian mysteries “would make Dickens’s eyes pop out” (New York Times Book Review). Named one of the 20^th century’s 100 Masters of Crime by The Times of London, Perry is the bestselling author of two acclaimed series set in Victorian England: the William Monk novels, including Dark Assassin and The Shifting Tide, and the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, including Buckingham Palace Gardens and Long Spoon Lane. Her haunting new novel Death on Blackheath—the 29^th in her Inspector Thomas Pitt series—features a naval weapons expert, love, betrayal, scandal, and murder.
