Preview The Blackheath Poisonings: A Victorian Murder Mystery
Description:
Suspecting murder, Paul Vandervent investigates the deaths of his father and aunt, which seem mysteriously connected to Charles Mortimer, who founded the family fortune and also died amidst puzzling circumstances.
Wealth can have its drawbacks. Case in point: The Collard and Vandervent families, who for decades have shared a large estate in the elegant London suburb of Blackheath. It's now the 1890s, and over the years, the families' near-incestuous entanglement has grown into a toxic web of lies and bitterness. While mama keeps an iron grasp on the purse strings, an unmarried daughter sucks greedily on her own disappointment, a son raises corruption to an art form, and an ethereal daughter-in-law casts come-hither glances at anything in pants.
