A luscious mystery set in London in the early 20th century. A group of friends meet at Oxford from widely varying backgrounds. One of them turns up murdered. The case is never solved until a decade later when one member of the group wants to put the question to rest. Jealousies, intrigue, extremely well drawn characters, and just enough overlay of Victorian mores make for a compelling story.
