Edward Kane and the Parlour Maid Murderer
The exploits of Kane and his manservant are both comic and thrilling in this Dickensian murder mystery set in Victorian Edinburgh Scotland, 1850. The penalty for murder is death by hanging. Why then employ a young defense lawyer with no trial experience who is surely destined to fail? And why does his client refuse to tell him what happened on the night the crime took place? Edward Kane and the Parlour Maid Murderer follows the young Advocate, Edward Kane, and his manservant, Mr. Horse from the great houses of Edinburgh to the taverns and alleyways of the Old Town in search of answers - and defense. The novel evokes the sights and sounds of Victorian Scotland, introducing a rich cast of characters.
