Defend and Betray -- Although esteemed General Thaddeus Carlyon meets his
death in a freak accident at home, his beautiful wife, Alexandra, confesses
that she killed him. Investigator William Monk, nurse Hester Latterly, and
the brilliant Oliver Rathbone, counsel for the defense, work feverishly to
break down the wall of silence raised by the accused and her husband's proud
family. With the trial only days away, they inch toward the dark and
appalling heart of the mystery. The final act is a courtroom masterpiece,
through which we dare not breathe too deeply, lest the precarious balance of
a woman's life be lost.

The Sins of the Wolf -- The doyenne of Victorian historicals (The Hyde Park
Headsman, LJ 3/1/94) offers another mystery masterwork in the William Monk
series. After nurse Hester Latterly's elderly charge dies on the train from
Edinburgh, the police charge her with murder via an overdose of heart
medication. Hester is innocent, of course, so Monk hastens to Edinburgh for
a background search of the family who originally hired Hester. Back in
London, lawyer Oliver Rathbone prepares to defend Hester but must defer to
the Scottish courts. As always, Perry's measured, literate prose and strict
attention to every detail of custom, location, and culture result in pure
reading pleasure.

A Sudden, Fearful Death -- Prudence Barrymore, a talented nurse who had
worked with Florence Nightingale in the Crimea, is found strangled to death
in a London hospital. Private inquiry agent William Monk is engaged to
investigate this horrific crime. Gradually, Monk assembles the portrait of a
remarkable woman. Yet he also discerns the shadow of a tragic evil and a
frightening glimmer of his own eclipsed past . . .
