Set in late Victorian England, when the master of the family dies his doctor rules natural causes but poison pen letters point to the wife and brother of the deceased. Nobody does hypocrisy like the Victorians. A very compelling look at a family that seemed to have it all.

In Victorian London,Theodore Crozier, businessman, has been found dead. Initially thought to be a natural death, suspicions are raised and whispers about a relationship between Mrs Laura Crozier and her brother-in-law Titus are brought to light. It falls to Inspector John Joseph Lintott to investigate.
An enjoyable mystery and an interesting exposé of Victorian domestic life.

I received this from netgalley.com in exchange for a review.
Theodore Crozier is found dead it may be suicide, or was it his dutiful wife Laura and beloved brother Titus.
A good (clean) whodunit which leaves you guessing until the end.
