Sinopsis

When Brewster, my bodyguard, comes to me about a murder of a pugilist&mdash,and what&rsquo,s more, says his wife has summoned me&mdash,I must hasten to St. Giles to find a killer before Brewster is arrested for the crime. This is made difficult because my wife&rsquo,s late husband&rsquo,s odious cousin has materialized to try to wrest her son into his care. After all, seven-year-old Peter is a viscount, and his cousin wants to get closer to the title.But how close? If Peter&rsquo,s life is in danger, I must remain, but Brewster risks hanging for the death of his wife&rsquo,s brother-in-law. He&rsquo,s done too much for me to turn my back on him, but the devil if I&rsquo,ll let the Breckenridge cousin get his clutches on Peter.It will take all my perseverance, and a few wiles, to plough through these difficulties. In the meantime, I meet a Runner who teaches me about crime and punishment in this enlightened age, and Brewster&rsquo,s old trainer, who made him the excellent pugilist&mdash,and thief&mdash,he is today.Book 13 of the Captain Lacey Regency Mysteries.
