When the Devil Drives

Autumn 1839. As the London nights darken rumours spread about the devil's chariot which preys on young women walking alone at night. Novice private investigator Liberty Lane has no time for such horror stories so when a poetic young man begs her to find his missing fiancee she accepts suspecting there is a more prosaic explanation. Meanwhile she is engaged to help prevent a royal scandal involving Prince Albert's worldlier brother Prince Ernest. Liberty begins work on both cases but when young women begin showing up dead the tales of the devil's chariot don't seem so ridiculous any more.
