Blood Is Blood by Will Thomas

4.0

The offices of Cyrus Barker are bombed and Barker is seriously injured. Thomas Llewelyn desperately wants to solve the case before he and Rebecca Cowan are married. Scotland Yard is willing to assist the investigation because they know it reflects badly on them when people in London are bombed. Cyrus is either in hospital or convalescing, so the whole investigation falls on Thomas' shoulders. He pulls together a list of suspects and begins to follow the trail. Interestingly enough, Cyrus' brother, Caleb, shows up, straight from the Wild West of the US; he is a Pinkerton agent and is in England for a case. Cyrus is willing to help Thomas, but only up to a point; he has his own kettle of fish to fry. As the list of suspects narrows, Thomas and Rebecca face some powerful enemies. Another interesting entry in this series, which is marked by excellent historical detail and good character development.
