Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Murders just don't happen in fashionable areas like Callander Square-but these two have. The police are totally baffled. Pretty, young Charlotte Ellison Pitt, however, is curious.
Inspector Pitt's well-bred wife doesn't often meddle in her husband's business, but something about this case intrigues her-to the point that staid Charlotte Pitt is suddenly rattling the closets of the very rich, seeking out backstairs gossip that would shock a barmaid, and unearthing truths that could push even the most proper aristocrat to murder.
"A Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novel."
Includes an interview with the author (p. [257]-263).
The bodies of two newborn babies have been found in a park in the fashionable London neighborhood of Callander Square. While Inspector Thomas Pitt is fighting to get the squire's aristocratic residents to speak with him, his pretty, well-born wife Charlotte decides to do some detective work of her own. Soon she is unearthing secrets in every house on the square while Thomas tries to discover what would drive a person to murder.
