Enjoy the "exemplary Victorian company" of this London sleuthing couple with books seven through ten in the long-running New York Times-bestselling series (The New York Times).   "Few mystery writers this side of Arthur Conan Doyle can evoke Victorian London with such relish for detail and mood" (San Francisco Chronicle). Now, in a single volume, readers can enjoy more of Anne Perry's "unfailingly rewarding" series (The New York Times Book Review).   Death in the Devil's Acre: A vicious and depraved serial killer is loose in the slums of Devil's Acre. When Pitt recognizes one of the victims as a blackmailing footman from a case on Callander Square, his investigation reveals a shocking connection between the city's brothels and Victorian high society. Now Charlotte and her sister Emily, Lady Ashworth, must unveil the dirty secrets of the aristocracy.   Cardington Crescent: When Thomas Pitt's womanizing brother-in-law is poisoned by his morning coffee, the inspector must exonerate the prime suspect: Lady Ashworth, Charlotte's sister Emily. With the help of Great-Aunt Vespasia, the couple chip away at a wall of deceit and silence to find the real killer, even after Lord Ashworth's suspected paramour is strangled--and found by Emily.   Silence in Hanover Close: At the behest of his superior, Pitt reopens a case gone cold. Three years prior, amidst whispered rumors of treason, Robert York, an important member of the British Foreign Office, was murdered in his home in London's exclusive Hanover Close. When a York family housemaid is found dead shortly after Pitt begins his investigation, he is accused and thrown into prison. Now only Charlotte and her recently widowed sister stand between Thomas Pitt and the gallows.   Bethlehem Road: When members of Parliament are murdered one-by-one crossing Westminster Bridge, Thomas and Charlotte must sift through a wide range of suspects, including anarchists and suffragettes. As more seats open up in Parliament and fear grips London, the couple wonders: Are the killings political or somehow personal?… (altro)
