Return to the musical halls of Victorian London in this 2nd Variety Palace historical murder mystery “rich with theatrical detail and . . . brilliant characters” (SJ Bennett, author of Murder Most Royal)
Perfect for fans of Karen Odden''s AN ARTFUL DODGE
“Triumphant . . . Vivid period detail, clever plotting, and thoughtful characterizations. This series merits a long run” — Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
Still reeling from the gruesome murders of the previous year, Minnie Ward is appointed manager of the Variety Palace. Times are hard, with performers shunning the ''cursed'' music hall, and Minnie''s relationship with Detective Albert Easterbrook is more complicated than ever. Despite the success of their last case, Minnie is terrified of the feelings that have started to grow between them. She has decided it’s definitely better for all involved if they stay as far away from each other as possible…
But when another killer begins to terrorise the city''s streets, Minnie and Albert are thrown together once more. The crimes seem connected to a notorious tragedy that left nearly 200 children dead—and with so many lives affected by the incident, practically everyone is a suspect. As the investigation unfolds, dark truths begin to come to light, and Minnie is forced to confront her own past.
The Innocents is the 2nd book in the Variety Palace Mystery series, which can be read independently but continue the story of irresistible crime-solving duo Minnie and Albert. Taking place against the thrilling backdrop of the Variety Palace Music Hall in gritty Victorian London, it''s perfect for fans of historical crime fiction, such as books by Sarah Waters, Stacey Halls and Elizabeth Macneal.
