What could link peer of the realm Lord Sholto Byam with the sordid userer? The situation is delicate enough to call in Bow Street's best, Inspector Thomas Pitt. One thing is soon clear: there are forces at work beyond the common motives of greed and fear of scandal. Can Charlotte Pitt amass enough evidence from her forays into Society to enable her husband to prove the unbelievable truth? Or will the hidden layers of conspiracy triumph, corrupting the government and justice itself?	Good / V Good 1996 ISBN: 0-00-647907-3

The field of suspects is limited to a handful of highly distinguished public servants, all with formidable reputations to maintain, all with considerable power to defend themselves from intrusive investigations. Simultaneously, Pitt is quietly looking into the death of his childhood mentor, who has apparently taken an overdose of laudenum. What possible connection can there be to the hidden traitor? Pitt begins to wonder if personal grief is clouding his judgement, as he can find no way forward. It takes a second sensational death to reveal the tangled truth, and to put at risk not only Pitt's life but that of his wife, Charlotte.	Good / V Good  1997 ISBN: 0-00-649817-5
