Fiction. Mystery. HTML:

From the acclaimed author of the Charles Lenox series of mysteries, including the Agatha-nominated novel A Beautiful Blue Death, comes a riveting short story of death and detection on the East End.
It's the end of winter 1865 when Lenox agrees to investigate the death of Phil Jigg, a beloved neighborhood regular, found strangled on Great St. Andrews Street. In a case that takes him through the noisy vendors and pickpockets, the rough-and-tumble back alleys and local pubs of the Seven Dials, Lenox looks for answers in a place that couldn't feel more foreign from his West End homeâ??and where his presence is anything but welcome. The answer comes in the person of someone so ruthless and brutal that those who could help Lenox are terrified into silence.
A whodunit filled with the kind of brooding atmosphere that led Library Journal to remark, "Readers of Anne Perry should be snatching up Finch's books and clamoring for more" (starred review of A Stranger in Mayfair), this is a delightfully vivid addition to the Charles Lenox series.… (mehr)

A short story set in 1865 London, where Lenox investigates the death of a well-liked rat-catcher.
Interesting, but felt it could have been expanded. ( )

I adore the Charles Lenox Mystery series. However, this short little mystery just left me wanting. It lacked all the human interaction I've come to love in this series. Yes, Lenox is brought onto the crime scene with little explanation. He resolves the mystery the next day; end of story. Looking forward to digging into the next book in the series, "A Burial at Sea".

OK. A short freebie. Well written, but not really my thing. And too short to make me care about the main character. ( )

Very short, even for a short story. It was only 17 pages actually. Not worth the $0.99 in my opinion. The mystery was okay for what it was, but was wrapped up a bit too abruptly. None of the secondary characters from the series appears in this story. ( )

Fun short story prequel to the Lenox series. Had no idea this story even existed. ( )
