Summary

Like all great mysteries this begins with a corpse, five in fact, five and a bit if you count the severed head.

This particular case has remained undisclosed for almost three decades. Sworn to secrecy, never to divulge the truth while the living were still at risk of reprisals. I've refrained from publishing or even speaking of those Regent's Park murders.

It's only safe to do so now due to the fact that those involved are either dead or never to be found again.

It remains one of the most astonishing moments in Holmes' career and exposes a shocking revelation about his character.

No American English in 19th cent. England

I enjoyed this book. However it had one flaw. A 19th cent. working girl would not use the American word fanny for her bottom. She would more likely use the word ar... Having said that I will more than likely read this book again. More like this D. G. Leigh, but please check English language usage and make your books 5*
