The second book in the acclaimed new historical crime series, set in Victorian London and featuring a transgender protagonist
It's been a year since Leo Stanhope lost the woman he loved, and came closing to losing his own life. Now more than ever, he is determined to keep his head down and stay safe, without risking any of those he holds dear. But Leo's hopes are shattered when the police unexpectedly arrive at his lodgings: a woman has been found murdered at a club for anarchists, and Leo's address is in her purse. Not only that, but a member of the same club knows Leo's birth identity and will share it with the authorities if Leo does not provide him with an alibi.
If Leo is unmasked, he will be thrown into an asylum, but if he lies, will he be protecting a murderer?
