Bleeding Heart Square

“Brutality lurks just beneath the surface of 1930s England in this absorbing Gothic mystery . . . a gripping tale" (Kirkus).

London, 1934. The decaying cul-de-sac of Bleeding Heart Square is an unlikely refuge for aristocratic Lydia Langstone. But as she flees her abusive marriage, there is only one person she can turn to--the genteelly derelict Captain Ingleby-Lewis, currently lodging at Number 7.

However, unknown to Lydia, a dark mystery haunts the decrepit building. What happened to Miss Penhow, the owner of the house who vanished four years ago? Why is a seedy policeman obsessively watching the square? Why are rotting hearts being sent to the building's landlord? And what makes struggling journalist Rory Wentwood so desperate for answers?

Legend has it the devil once danced in Bleeding Heart Square—but is there's a new and sinister presence lurking in its shadows. And Lydia must bring it to light before it's too late.
