Murder by the Thames
(2025)(The eighth book in the Lady Felicity Quick Mystery series)
A novel by Rosie Hunt
A stroll along the River Thames reveals breathtaking views of the Tower of London, Big Ben … and a body in the water!
England, 1922. London is a dazzling change from Lady Felicity Quick’s life in rural Devon, and her first case as a professional private detective is proving a rousing success.
Investigating a string of daring thefts at an exclusive Bond Street jeweller has introduced Felicity to bustling theatres, lively music clubs, and the glamour of London’s high society. It’s also brought her closer to Mr Alexander Cooper, the London-born journalist on whom Felicity is rather keen.
But when a jaunt to the river takes a sinister turn, Felicity is drawn into an even deeper mystery involving the most fascinating and fashionable denizens of England’s capital. Beneath the glitter, there’s a world of secrets and danger — including a troubling connection to the family Felicity dreams of joining through marriage.
Can Felicity solve the case and make sense of her future with Alex? Or will London’s darker side leave her dreams — and her very existence — adrift in murky waters?
If you love witty and determined heroines like Lady Hardcastle and Maisie Dobbs and the twist-filled historical mysteries of Helena Dixon and Agatha Christie, then don’t miss Murder by the Thames!
