 Fearing his involuntary part in the murders, he becomes embroiled in an amateur investigation led by the wealthy aspiring detective Alexander Wakefield, supported by the Leader of the Opposition, Lord Benedict Granville.

My Review:-This book is set in London in 1891. Gabriel Ashmore is not sure what is happening, there has been four murders each one has the same black veins. Gabriel is worried as all four have a connection to him, is this because of the new variant Erebus of Opium?  Lord Benedict Granville has something to do with it and Gabriel needs to know what and why.  We meet many characters as the story moves on, some more interesting than others. I don't like to add spoilers to my reviews so apart from says I did love the ending of the book. Gabriel, his brother Hugo, his wife Xing are having a Christmas meal that Xing has cooked at the Ashmore's home, Alexander is also invited to celebrate Christmas with them. I would love to see if the author has a Book Two on the way.
