Daughters of Night by Laura Shepherd-Robinson is a gripping historical crime novel set in Georgian London. In 1782, Caroline 'Caro' Corsham finds a woman mortally wounded in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, sparking a quest for justice that delves into the hidden corners of society. As Caro enlists the help of thief-taker Peregrine Child, they uncover a complex web of artifice and deception, where many gentlemen refuse to speak about their dealings with the dead woman. With Caro's reputation under threat, finding the killer becomes a treacherous pursuit. This is a pacey read of a crime thriller, conveyed with convincing clarity, that will keep you on the edge of your seat as Caro navigates the treacherous world of Georgian London.
