Description: Grave Expectations by Heather Redmond Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description On the eve of Victorian England, Charles Dickens and Kate Hogarth must solve the murder of a spinster wearing a wedding gown . . .London, June 1835- In the interest of being a good neighbor, Charles checks in on Miss Haverstock, the elderly spinster who resides in the flat above his. But as the young journalist and his fiancee Kate ascend the stairs, they are assaulted by the unmistakable smell of death. Upon entering the womans quarters, they find her decomposing corpse adorned in a faded gown that looks like it could have been her wedding dress, had she been married. A murderer has set the stage. But to what purpose?As news of an escaped convict from Coldbath Fields reaches the couple, Charles reasonably expects the prisoner, Ned Blood, may be responsible. But Kate suspects more personal motives, given the time and effort in dressing the victim. When a local blacksmith is found with cut manacles in his shop and arrested, his distraught wife begs Charles and Kate to help. At the inquest, they are surprised to meet Miss Haverstocks cold and haughty illegitimate daughter, shadowed by her miserably besotted companion. Secrets shrouded by the old womans past may hold the answers to this web of mystery. But Charles and Kate will have to risk their lives to unveil the truth . . ."As easy to read as one of Mr. Dickens actual novels and as entertaining."-New York Journal of Books"Once again, Redmond mixes history, mystery, and a little bit of whimsy."-Kirkus Reviews"Captures the young Charless ebullient energy, the warmth of his circle, and the color of a fast-changing era.
