No breath of scandal has ever touched the aristocratic Moidore family—until Sir Basil’s beautiful widowed daughter is stabbed to death in her own bed, a shocking, incomprehensible tragedy. Inspector William Monk is ordered to investigate in a manner that will give the least possible pain to the influential family. But Monk, brilliant and ambitious, is handicapped by lingering traces of amnesia and by the craven ineptitude of his supervisor, who would like nothing better than to see Monk fail. With the help of nurse Hester Latterly, a progressive young woman who served with Florence Nightingale in the Crimea, Monk gropes warily through the silence and shadows that obscure the case, knowing that with each step he comes closer to the appalling truth.

Boken är bra men i andra delen är flera stycken eller kapitel huller om buller. Tyckte vid första tillfället att, hoppsan det gick fort, för att en halv timme senare få lyssna på en del som borde ha kommit innan. Hände flera gånger 🤔😏

Bok #2 - Bra men inte lika intressant och bra som del 1 kanske. Gillar dock huvudpersonerna och kommer fortsatta upptäcktsfärden. - 3.7 Stars
