The Baker Street Widow
A Victorian Historical Murder Mystery with a Lady DetectiveBy Eleanor Fitzhugh
Length9h 42m
About this audiobook
London, 1891.
Constance Ashby's husband was the most celebrated consulting detective in the city. Eight days after his funeral, his last client is found hanged in her own parlour — and Constance is the only person who knows the appointment existed.
What she inherits is a desk, a brass plate, and a locked case of unsolved files. What she finds inside is a shipment of sewing machine parts that never reached Glasgow, three dead seamstresses, and a name that appears in a peer's ledger and nowhere else.
The courts will not hear her. The morgue will not admit her. So Constance buys a cab, hires a disgraced policeman, and goes to work.
A Victorian historical murder mystery for readers of fog-bound streets, unfair odds, and women who refuse to be widowed quietly.
