Meanwhile, Swann continues to investigate his sister’s unscrupulous fiancé, combat the local crime boss, and persist in his search for the Scarred Man, who may hold the key to the unsolved murder of Swann’s father. But time is running out . . .

    This is the second novel in this Regency era murder mystery series featuring Jack Swann and set in Bath. Once again I am reading this during a visit to this lovely city. The characters are interesting and colourful, and the plot is a little arcane, though novel, with several other threads going on in the background, in particular linking back to Swann's childhood and his father's murder. The digressions on Bath history and architecture are interesting to me, though some readers might find them intrusive and too diverting from the main narrative. Jane Austen also makes an appearance as a friend of Jack's adopted sister Mary. Good stuff, and I hope he writes more.
