Penrose and Pyke's hopes of a quieter life are dashed by a spate of baffling burglaries and a persuasive charlatan promoting a miracle cure.
Dunedin society is up in arms as their valuables vanish without a trace from locked homes. Although the trail leads to an apparent dead end, private detective Charlie Penrose Pyke catches the scent of a shadowy figure lurking behind the scenes.
Meanwhile, Grace Penrose Pyke's reckless curiosity leaves her in a precarious position with life-changing consequences, after she is drawn into an investigation of dubious medical devices. Their combined talents will be needed to unravel this pair of shocking deceptions.
The Penrose & Pyke Mystery series is set during a remarkable period of social upheaval in 1890s New Zealand.
Rose Pascoe writes historical mysteries with a dash of romance, when she isn't plotting real-life adventures.
She lives in beautiful New Zealand, land of beaches and mountains, where long walks provide the perfect conditions for dreaming up plots and fickle weather provides the incentive to sit down and actually write the darn things.
After a career in health, justice and social research, her passion is for stories set against a backdrop of social revolution. Her heroines are ordinary women, who meet the challenges thrown at them with determination, ingenuity, courage, and humour.
