'Alanna Knight could hardly be better' Ian Rankin
Product Description
When the circus arrives in Edinburgh, Rose McQuinn is delighted. However, the much anticipated festivities are overshadowed by a curious set of crimes, involving the murder of a clerk during a bank robbery and, within hours of each other, the identical suicides of two young women. Are these deaths as straightforward as the police claim or could they all be linked to one killer? The evidence leads her from suspect to suspect but Rose still cannot prove conclusively who the real culprit is. She confides in her new-found friend - young, rich and beautiful Elma Rice - but when there is a murderous attack on Elma's husband, Rose must discover what vital clue she has overlooked before she becomes the killer's next victim.

Rose McQuinn has been living in Solomon's Tower since her return to Edinburgh four yeas ago. Since that day she has earned her living as a Lady Investigator, Discretion Guaranteed. Now on this Autumn day in 1899 whilst walking on a hill with her dog, the mythical Thane, Rose is led, by a small white, highland terrier to a lady who has twisted her ankle out walking. The lady is the rich and beautiful Elma Miles Rice, and the two strike up an unexpected friendship, more enthusiastic however on Mrs Rice's side than Rose's.
At this time the circus has come to Edinburgh, and the tragic deaths by hanging of two young unmarried girls is being investigated. An attack on the husband of her new friend Mrs Rice brings Rose into the investigation. Attending the circus with Mrs Rice, Rose is shocked to see a familiar face - but this is not the only shock in store for Rose, or for the reader as this tale unfolds.
An exciting entry in this series, which moves the story forward at a pace.

I have long been a fan of Alanna Knight's Inspector Faro, less so of Rose McQuinn though I read them. This is the best Rose McQuinn by far, a bit on the sad side but a good story. Recommended.
