Synopsis

'Superb.... An engrossing and complicated tale...that touches on every aspect of Victorian society.'—Michael Dirda, Washington Post Book World

'After killing the red-haired man, I took myself off to Quinn's for an oyster supper.' So begins the 'enthralling' (Booklist, starred review) and 'ingenious' (Boston Globe) story of Edward Glyver, booklover, scholar, and murderer. A chance discovery convinces Glyver that greatness awaits him. His path to win back what is rightfully his leads him to Evenwood, one of England's most enchanting country houses, and a woman who will become his obsession.
