Death at Dartmoor (A Victorian Mystery)

Death at Dartmoor (A Victorian Mystery)

â€œA sentence to Dartmoor Prison is a sentence to a living hellâ€¦â€ Lord Charles Sheridan and his American wife, Kate, have heard some truly awful things about Britainâ€™s most notorious prison. But Dartmoor and its mist-shrouded environs hold special appeal for both Sheridans. Kate hopes to find inspiration for her new Gothic novel, while Charles plans to implement a fingerprinting program at the prisonâ€”and arrange a meeting with one of its most infamous inmates, Samuel Spencer. Heâ€™s convinced that Spencerâ€”a Scotsman who admitted to killing his wifeâ€”is, in fact, innocent. Whatâ€™s more, he believes he has the evidence to prove it. But Spencer continues to maintain his own guiltâ€”and, as if to confirm it, he soon stages a daring prison escape. Lord Charles and his acquaintance Arthur Conan Doyle are most perplexed by this odd turn of events. And when a body turns up on the moor, itâ€™s up to the two menâ€”and the clever Kateâ€”to discover if the missing convict is connected to this murderous new caseâ€¦
