Monk, the dark and brooding hero . . . infuses this luxuriantly detailed series with its romantic soul".-- "The New York Times Book Review" When Countess Zorah Rostova asks London barrister Sir Oliver Rathbone to defend her against a charge of slander, he is astonished to find himself accepting.

Though private investigator William Monk and his friend Hester Latterly, manage to establish that the prince was indeed murdered, as events unfold the likeliest suspect seems to be Countess Zorah herself. . . .
