β¦ Synopsis
A Liberty Lane mystery - Autumn, 1839. As the London nights darken, rumours spread about the devilβ²s chariot, which preys on young women walking alone at night. Novice private investigator Liberty Lane has no time for such horror stories, so when a poetic young man begs her to find his missing fiancΓ©e, she accepts, suspecting there is a more prosaic explanation. Meanwhile, she is engaged to help prevent a royal scandal involving Prince Albertβ²s worldlier brother, Prince Ernest. Liberty begins work on both cases, but when young women begin showing up dead, the tales of the devilβ²s chariot donβ²t seem so ridiculous any more.
