About this listen
Regency London is not all romance, society balls and dashing dukes - and magistrates' constable Sam Plank is more than aware of it.* Awarded BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017 by influential book review website Discovering Diamonds
An elderly French artist is found dead in his rooms in London clutching a miniature portrait of a little girl.
Intrigued, Constable Sam Plank delves into the world of art dealing and finds himself navigating the fragile post-war relationship between England and France.
What is the link between this and the recent attacks on customs officers in London Docks?
And will a beautiful mademoiselle put paid to Martha Plank’s matchmaking? In this fourth novel in the Sam Plank series, set in the chilly spring of 1827, Plank and his junior constable William Wilson meet Frenchmen in London and daring blockademen in Kent to uncover smuggling and even more dangerous ambitions.
