Summary
:
Turn-of-the-century Toronto makes an evocative setting for murder. The plot concerns the murder of a young housemaid, discovered naked in a snowy lane, and the cast of suspects spans the social strata. Yet it is William Murdoch, the detective in charge of the case, who breathes life into what might otherwise have been a conventional murder mystery. As he pursues his quest for justice, Murdoch also mourns the death of his fiancÔee; his manner of doing both reveals a compassionate, principled man--one whose fictional endeavors (readers hope) have only just begun.
