Who Cries for the Lost
The eighteenth Sebastian St. Cyr mystery
June 1815. As Napoleon and the forces united against him hurtle toward what will be their final reckoning at Waterloo, the people of London wait anxiously for news as. Among them is Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, frustrated to find himself sidelined while recovering from a dangerous wound he recently received in Paris. When the mutilated corpse of Major Miles Sedgewick surfaces from the murky waters of the Thames, Sebastian is drawn into the investigation of a murder that threatens one of his oldest and dearest friends, Irish surgeon Paul Gibson.
Gibson's lover, Alexi Sauvage, was tricked into a bigamous marriage with the victim. But there are other women who may have wanted the cruel, faithless Major dead. His mistress, the neglected wife, and a young governess he seduced all make for compelling suspects. Even more interesting to Sebastian is one of Sedgewick's fellow officers, a man who shared Sedgewick's macabre interest in both old English folklore and the occult. And then there's the valuable list of Londoners who once spied for Napoleon that Sedgewick was said to be transporting to Charles, Lord Jarvis, the Regent's powerful cousin who also happens to be Sebastian's own father-in-law.
