Mystery
Scotland's richest man has been shot dead and dumped down a
well. Was the
Duke of Dornoch murdered by one of the miners whose wages he
cut because
of "market forces"? Was he killed in return for his part in
clearing the
Highlands of their people? Did a discarded lover take their
final revenge? Inspector Allerdyce and Sergeant McGillivray VC must find
out before the
killer strikes again. But their search, from the material
heights of Victorian
society to its moral dregs, threatens to overturn everything
Allerdyce believes
and loves.
In the tradition of Charles Finch and The Somnambulist,
Alastair Sim has
crafted a memorable, atmospheric novel that covers new
ground in the world
of Victorian mysteries.
