Produktbeschreibung

A mysterious woman with no memory. A young maid turned amateur sleuth. Can Lucy Campion unravel the secrets of a nobleman's daughter before it's too late?

In 17th-century London, Lucy Campion, a ladies' maid turned printer's apprentice, encounters a ghostly figure on Holborn Bridge. The specter is revealed to be a young noblewoman, clad in a blood-spattered nightdress and unable to recall her identity. As the townspeople whisper of possession, Lucy takes the woman under her wing, seeking the help of a physician.

With Lucy's aid, the woman begins to piece together the chilling events that led to her appearance on the bridge that fateful morning. But as the truth unravels, it becomes clear that the young woman's safety hangs in the balance. Lucy finds herself entangled in a plot with far-reaching implications, forcing her to decide just how far she'll go to protect her newfound charge.

In Death Along the River Fleet, Susanna Calkins paints a vivid portrait of Restoration-era England and a young woman pushing against the confines of her society. This absorbing historical mystery promises a gripping read for fans of British sleuths and atmospheric suspense.
