A Conspiracy of Poisons — J.G. Jeffreys
SHE HAD A TRYST WITH DEATH
The ace of the Bow Street Runners, rollicking, resourceful, womanizing Jeremy Sturrock, is back again, this time called on to investigate a Napoleonic plot that may threaten the safety of Britain. The year is 1804 and the trail leads from a beautiful, mysteriously poisoned prostitute to the grisly digging up of a still more mysterious corpse back to the salons of a fashionable brothel and on to a headlong ride to the wilds Savernake Forest.
In this bawdy, hilarious romp -- with a solid background in history -- Sturrock and his clerk Maggsy more than live up to their fabled reputation for solving crimes.
