Book 1
Genre: Historical / Mystery / Thriller / Crime
Setting: London, 1850s
Description:
In the fog-drenched streets of 1850s London, a secretive female detective bureau under Scotland Yard is forced to confront a chilling pattern of disappearances. Led - reluctantly - by the emotionally closed-off Florence Lancaster and her spirited young colleague Amelia Harper, the investigation spirals into a tangled web of bloodstained roses, cryptic playing cards, and a killer who knows Florence far too well.
What begins as a professional case turns terrifyingly personal when Florence's painful past resurfaces in the form of an old lover turned predator. With knives drawn and loyalties tested, Florence, Amelia, and their begrudging allies Nathaniel and Thomas must race against time through crime scenes, betrayals, and a labyrinth of obsession before more women vanish... or worse.
Witty, sharp, and slow-burning with tension and dark humor, The Queen of Roses is a gothic mystery where every rose hides a thorn and survival demands more than courage - it demands reckoning with the past.
