Publisher's Summary

A woman dies in a burglary in Fitzrovia. A man is murdered in an opium den in Limehouse. Gutsy Fleet Street reporter Penny Green suspects the two deaths are connected, but how can she prove it?

The answer may lie in Whitehall where the India Office reaps the benefits of Britain's opium trade. But when Inspector James Blakely of Scotland Yard begins investigating, an unforeseen danger looms.

Soon Penny is forced to act alone and is put to the ultimate test when her quest becomes personal.

Engrossing!

I love these books. Penny tries so hard to be worldly but she isn’t, nevertheless she’s determined and intelligent. Please, for the love of heaven, let her romantic life go the way I hope it will!

Unbelievably gullible woman

I really hope that most women are not as gullible as Penny Green. It is really odd that this author should write her in this way. She keeps hanging on to the hope that this cad will give up his fiancee to come running to her. And in the meantime, while refusing to give up his fiancee, he is jealous of anyone she appears to take an interest in
