4.5 stars. This tenth offering in the series was the best so far. It was a complicated mystery and although I thought I had it all sewed up early on, I was way off base. A murderer is stalking MP's as they walk across the Westminster Bridge after late night sittings of the House of Commons and returning to their homes. The victims seem to be unrelated and Pitt gets more and more discouraged as he searches for clues and finds none that tie the murders together. The subplot is the fight for women's rights in Victorian England and there is some interesting background available here. The final solution was a surprise to me with and it didn't come at the very end, but allowed for some further action after the solution. Well-done. I alternately read and listened and Davina Porter was good as always.

C.  (Comment or e-mail, please never send msg). Gosh, I disagree and my review is going to say why. However, I love Anne and this series.
