James Marwood is a survivor of the fire and he is soon sent to investigate the murder of a body found in the ashes of St. Paul’s cathedral. The body has a stab wound in the neck and the thumbs are tied behind the back. As Marwood investigates he soon comes upon a second dead body and not long after that, a determined young woman out for revenge.

Tyalor is also the author of The Silent Boy. This book is set in Paris in 1792 during the French Revolution. The story begins when Edward Savill is working in London for a wealthy American when he gets word that his wife has been killed in France. She leaves behind the ten-year-old Charles who makes his way to England and Charnwood Court, a house leased by emigre refugees. Savill heads to Charnwood to retrieve him and when he arrives he discovers that Charles is mute, having witnessed horrors beyond his years. The boy harbors a terrible secret that Savill will seek to free from him.
