Summary
A vicious killer stalks the court of Charles II in 1672 London, inscribing his victims' bodies with mysterious markings.
In present day Cambridge, England, a Trinity College history professor is found dead with the torn page of a 17th century diary in his hand. His death appears to be an accident, but the college's newest Fellow Claire Donovan and historian Andrew Kent suspect otherwise.
The dead professor's last research subject was Hannah Devlin, a physician to the king's mistress and the keeper of a diary that holds the key to a series of unsolved murders in 1670s London.
Now Claire and Andrew must follow the clues Hannah left behind, unearthing secrets of the past and present from the library archives.

Critique
Book 3 in the Clare Donovan series is being planned. If you like Lauren Willig, you'll love Christie Phillips. Highly recommend.
