London, 1671. Work on an old almshouse stops when Cat Hakesby’s builders uncover the mutilated body of a man in the ruins. James Marwood is ordered to investigate, and the victim’s identity draws him into corruption within government offices and the dangerous protection enjoyed by powerful men.
At court, the young Frenchwoman Louise de Kérouaille is being manoeuvred toward Charles II, giving her private fate international significance. As Marwood and Cat follow the murder into Whitehall, their case becomes entangled with the political interests surrounding the king’s new favourite.
