Keeper of Pleas

Annelie Wendeberg

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. December 1880, Whitechapel. Nine dead infants in flowerpots. A vanished mortician. And one lead: the prostitute who saw him last.

In a city where money masks the darkest secrets, Sévère must navigate between what's legal and what's necessary. Even if it means hiring the services of the very woman he's investigating. ______ A gritty Victorian crime novel that explores the darkest corners of London's underworld.
