A young woman found dead in the mud. A vanished sister. A country-house pond hiding a truth the police cannot make sense of. In the village of Ninescore, the body of Mary Nicholls appears to have been discovered in the grounds of Ash Court — half-submerged in the slime of a stagnant pond, her face and identity ruined by the water, but her dress, purse, and ring seemingly confirming who she is. The police have no proper motive, no clear weapon, and no suspect who can be made to fit. Mary had been involved with a gentleman far above her station. Her sober sister Susan disapproved. A child is being kept in a lonely cottage on the Canterbury road. And somewhere in the background stands a wealthy lord whose past may not be as respectable as his title. But where the men of Scotland Yard see only a dead end, Lady Molly sees the one thing they have missed: the human heart. Disguised as a lady artist on a sketching tour, Lady Molly travels to Ninescore with her loyal companion Mary Granard and sets a trap so cruel, so precise, and so psychologically brilliant that the hidden truth cannot help but step into the light.
