About this listen

Autumn, 1839. As the London nights darken, rumours spread about the devil's chariot, which preys on young women walking alone at night.

Novice private investigator Liberty Lane has no time for such horror stories, so when a poetic young man begs her to find his missing fiancee, she accepts, suspecting there is a more prosaic explanation.

Meanwhile, she is engaged to help prevent a royal scandal involving Prince Albert's worldlier brother, Prince Ernest. Liberty begins work on both cases, but when young women begin showing up dead, the tales of the devil's chariot don't seem so ridiculous any more.

This is a world where men are ranked according to their wealth and height, the woman their beauty. Much is made of horses fashion and image in general. A discussion over which animal's fur compliments the wearer fox or rabbit is as far as I got. This may be the reality for the Trump's, Windsor's, Markles and other Instagram obsessed members of our society but I pay my credit to escape from them not into it. Great narrator though!

Not a world to escape to
