"The upper-class amateur sleuth is very much alive in Charles Finch's charming Victorian whodunits." -The New York Times Book ReviewIn this critically-acclaimed, Agatha-Award nominated series The New York Times calls "beguiling," gentleman sleuth Charles Lenox investigates in the grand tradition of Sherlock Holmes and Lord Peter Wimsey.

When another body turns up during the London season's most fashionable ball, Lenox must untangle a web of loyalties and animosities. The September SocietyWhile searching for the missing son of a family friend, Lenox stumbles upon some rather dastardly secrets and soon discovers a secret group of young college students involved in an organization called The September Society. Might they have something to do with the disappearance? And is he in for some danger himself? The Fleet Street MurdersAcross London two journalists have just met with violent deaths-one shot, one throttled.

Once there, he gets a further shock when Lady Jane sends him a letter whose contents may threaten their nuptials.
