Description
It's the Enrights' toughest case yet! Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle, Andrew Taylor and Laura Shepherd-Robinson.
Could exposing police brutality mean the end for Jack's career?
1909
The Edwardian era is in full swing and Asquith's Liberal government is confronting several divisive issues. The Irish are demanding home rule, Germany is winning the 'arms race', and the suffragettes are demanding the right to equality.
The Enrights would prefer to continue enjoying the quiet life that has belatedly come their way, but circumstances conspire against them.
Their restless daughter Lily stumbles upon a suffragette protest and witnesses the brutality inflicted on the women by the police, inspiring her to covertly work for the cause.
Meanwhile, Uncle Percy has been sent undercover again, this time to identify whoever is teaching suffragettes how to fight with makeshift weapons.
And Jack is tasked with assuring his superiors that rumours of unlawful assaults on suffragettes in police custody are baseless.
But when Jack learns otherwise, both he and Percy are obliged to reassess their loyalties.
The divided Enrights must come to terms with their consciences and balance family love against duty.
But will Jack have to turn his back on his career if he decides to expose the truth?
MATRONS OF DISHONOUR is the thirteenth crime thriller in an exciting historical series, the Esther and Jack Enright Mysteries, a traditional British detective series set in Victorian London and packed full of suspense.
