Murder in Drury Lane - Vanessa Riley

Offering "a vibrant picture of the roles Black and mixed‑race people played in Regency life" (Publishers Weekly), this unique historical mystery series, featuring a mixed-race heroine with a notorious past, will appeal to Bridgerton fans who want a sharper edge to their drama.

Onstage, a woman emits a scream of genuine terror. A man has been found dead...
