Readers in love with Anne Perry's matchless Victorian mysteries are no strangers to the scandals and secret corruption that sometimes lay concealed behind the elegant facades of the haughty mansions in fin de siecle London. For most Londoners, however, these great houses were inscrutable bastions of privilege and power. All the more shocking then was the freshly dead body sprawled on the Bedford Square doorstep of General Brandon Ballantyne--an affront to every respectable sensibility. The general denies all knowledge of the bloody-knuckled, shabbily dressed victim who has so rudely come to death outside his home. But Superintendent Thomas Pitt of Bow Street Police Station cannot believe him. For in the dead man's pocket he finds a rare snuffbox that recently graced the general's study. He must tread lightly, however, lest his investigation trigger a tragedy of immense proportions, ensnaring honorable men like flies in a web of terror. Pitt's clever wife, Charlotte, becomes his full partner in probing this masterpiece of evil, spawned by an amorality greater than they can imagine. Like all Anne Perry novels, Bedford Square brings to vivid life a world of silver spoons and tattered rags, of men and women who embrace the best and the worst of human nature, where vicious lies become weapons of destruction--and dead men tell no tales.

Un cadáver sin identificar, un escalofriante asesinato, un crimen movido por la pasión y el brillante escenario de la Inglaterra victoriana son los ingredientes de este nuevo desafío para el inspector Thomas Pitt. La vigésima novela de la serie del inspector Pitt El inspector Thomas Pitt no puede identificar de inmediato a qué estrato social pertenece un hombre cuyo cadáver ha sido encontrado en una barca totalmente a la deriva en el Támesis, pero la visión es imborrable: yace en una embarcación destartalada, con brazos y piernas encadenados, ataviado con un vestido de mujer desgarrado y rodeado de guirnaldas de flores. ¿Se trata, como teme Pitt, de un diplomático francés desaparecido? ¿O tan solo de alguien que se le parece extraordinariamente? La exhaustiva investigación de Pitt le obliga a adentrarse en el mundo bohemio londinense, desde los ambientes de teatro hasta los estudios donde los maestros de la luz y la sombra experimentan con el fascinante y nuevo arte de la fotografía. Una vez más, Anne Perry ahonda en los crímenes movidos por la pasión y nos ofrece un brillante retrato de la sociedad londinense victoriana: resonar de cascos de caballos sobre los adoquines, elegantes salones de té, escándalos inconfesables, secretos de alcoba y, en fin, el fuerte latido de una ciudad esplendorosa. La crítica ha dicho... «Sugerente... Impactante... El desarrollo es pura tensión, con giros inesperados y con la pulcritud y la inteligencia que hacen de Perry la reina del misterio histórico inglés.» The Chicago Tribune

Someone on posh Callander Square will kill to keep a secret in this “superior” mystery from the New York Times–bestselling author of Twenty-One Days (The San Diego Union-Tribune). When two dead infants are dug up in the Callander Square gardens, the upper-class residents dismiss the burials as the desperate act of a low-born girl and resent the intrusion of Inspector Thomas Pitt into their well-ordered lives. Pitt is not convinced that the case should be so easily dropped. Also intrigued by the mystery, Pitt’s well-born wife, Charlotte, pursues her own investigation into places Thomas would never have access—the parlors and inner chambers of the mansions on the fashionable square. With her sister Emily, Lady Ashworth, who lives on Callander Square, she delves into the lives and secrets of the residents. Thomas and Charlotte, now expecting their first child, form the perfect sleuthing couple. Elegant closets soon spill their skeletons exposing long-hidden secrets—secrets that could lead even the most upright aristocrat to kill. But will Pitt’s keen investigative skills and Charlotte’s insights into the workings of high-class society solve the mystery in time to save the innocent residents of Callander Square from the murderer among them? Callander Square is the 2nd book in the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt Novels, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order. /DIV
