The ritual murder of a prostitute named Ada McKinley in a bedroom on decrepit Pentecost Alley would ordinarily occasion no stir in Victoria's great metropolis. But under the victim's body the police find a Hellfire Club badge inscribed with the name Finlay Fitzjames - a name that instantly draws Superintendent Thomas Pitt into the case.

Finlay's father - immensely wealthy, powerful, and dangerous - refuses to consider the possibility that his son has been in Ada McKinley's bed. The implication is clear: Pitt is to arrest someone other than Finlay Fitzjames for Ada's demise. But Thomas Pitt is not a man to be intimidated, and with the help of his quick-witted wife, Charlotte, and her well-connected friends, he stubbornly pursues his investigation - one that twists and turns like London's own ancient streets....

Anne Perry has devised the most intricate mystery of her prolific career in Pentecost Alley, whose brilliant resolution will astonish and satisfy even the most discerning.

Very engaging mystery. Also gave a feeling of that time period. I guessed part of the twist at the end, but not all.

Very engaging.

I’m enjoying the character development over this series. I’m still not terribly happy with the new narrator, I find that I have a bump up the playback speed to 1.1 in order to enjoy her reading style. Also the chapters are way off alignment! The don’t match up in any type of order!

Great story

I love this series; however, I must say that the mystery involved in this book was the most interesting and wrenching of any so far. I highly recommend it.

The best ever

Excellent story

This is the first time I was able to figure some of it out before the very end, but still an incredibly satisfying story.

Great read as always!

Some don't care for the detail that Anne Perry writes with, but I'm not one of them. For the true armchair sleuth, she let's us inside the head of Charotte and William Pitt, and even Eleanor, but we see the clues as they see them. This book in particular had so many twists and turns that even when you think you know who did it, you don't know enough until the end. What an amazing writer. The nuances of her characters both big and small make this a psychological mystery tour de force.

The Best Plot Ever!

This was definitely intriguing and intense. But I still have questions about the second murder.

This author is amazing in her imagination and the narrator is perfect.

On to the next adventure

Of all the Anne Perry’s books this one is by far my favorite. It held my attention until the end. That is to say a lot considering I have been reading mystery books since

A book not to pass

All these years later, her books are still a very fun read. I love learning about that time frame in England.

Great twists!
