Description
Death and the Harlot introduces Lizzie Hardwicke, a sharp-witted investigator navigating the shadowy underbelly of Victorian London. Once a woman of the streets, Lizzie has reinvented herself as a private detective, taking on cases that Scotland Yard refuses to acknowledge. Her unique perspective and insider knowledge of London’s criminal underworld make her invaluable—and dangerous.
When a series of murders begins claiming victims connected to the city’s most powerful men, Lizzie finds herself drawn into a web of corruption, betrayal, and secrets that threaten to unravel the carefully maintained facade of respectability. As she investigates, she discovers that survival in this world requires more than intelligence—it demands cunning, resilience, and the willingness to challenge the very society that condemns her. The first novel in the Lizzie Hardwicke series, this historical mystery combines compelling crime fiction with a richly drawn protagonist.
