Traitors Gate -- Anne Perry

<p>Someone in the Colonial Office is passing secrets to Germany about England's strategy on Africa. While Police Superintendent Thomas Pitt investigates this matter of treason, he is quietly looking into the tragic death of his childhood mentor, Sir Arthur Desmond. Pitt believes that Sir Arthur was murdered, and that the crime is connected with the treachery in the government. And when the strangled body of an aristocratic society beauty is found floating near lonely Traitors Gate, Pitt and his clever wife, Charlotte, begin to see clearly the pattern of tragedy and frightening evil that Pitt must deal with, at the risk of his career--and his life.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Anne Perry<br><b>Publisher:</b> Ballantine Books<br><b>Published:</b> 09/28/2010<br><b>Pages:</b> 432<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.70lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.94h x 5.30w x 0.94d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780345514172<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><b>Anne Perry</b> is the bestselling author of two acclaimed series set in Victorian England: the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, including <i>Death on Blackheath</i> and <i>Midnight at Marble Arch, </i>and<i> </i>the William Monk novels, including <i>Blood on the Water </i>and <i>Blind Justice</i>.
