Synopsis

Lucy Lawrence stared down at her husband, his once handsome face now a twisted mask of death. She shivered and pulled her shawl tighter around her shoulders. His life had held so many secrets, and now his sins were hers to bear…

England, 1886. In the flickering gaslights of Victorian London, 28-year-old Lucy Lawrence's future hangs in the balance. Her husband's murder has left her reputation in tatters, and the theft of her mother's priceless heirloom pearls has only added to her woes. But when the handsome investigator Phineas Stone enters her life, Lucy finds herself drawn into a web of deceit that leads right back to her marriage and a deadly conspiracy that could undo them all.

Beneath the polished veneer of London's high society, danger is as common as in the city's darkest alleys. As the stakes rise, Lucy discovers that the key to unravelling the mystery may lie in a cryptic note left behind by her late husband… a note that could either secure her innocence or seal her fate at the hands of a ruthless killer.

And unputdownable historical mystery full of twists, red herrings and a dash of romance. No Stone Unturned is the first instalment in the bestselling Lucy Lawrence mystery series.
