So begins the swirling, serpentine world of Paraic O'Donnell's Victorian-inspired mystery, the story of a city cloaked in shadow, but burning with questions: why does the seamstress jump from the window? Why is a cryptic message stitched into her skin? And how is she connected to a rash of missing girls, all of whom seem to have disappeared under similar circumstances? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOn the case is Inspector Cutter, a detective as sharp and committed to his work as he is wryly hilarious. Gideon Bliss, a Cambridge dropout in love with one of the missing girls, stumbles into a role as Cutter's sidekick. And clever young journalist Octavia Hillingdon sees the case as a chance to tell a story that matters--despite her employer's preference that she stick to a women's society column. As Inspector Cutter peels back the mystery layer by layer, he leads them all, at last, to the secrets that lie hidden at the house on Vesper Sands. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy turns smart, surprising, and impossible to put down, \u003ci\u003eThe House on Vesper Sands\u003c\/i\u003e offers a glimpse into the strange undertow of late nineteenth-century London and the secrets we all hold inside us.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eParaic O'Donnell\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe House on Vesper Sands\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Maker of Swans.\u003c\/i\u003e He lives in Wicklow, Ireland, with his wife and two children, and can usually be found in the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 8.4 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 11, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51892622360864,"sku":"9781951142988","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/hQv1eOvXvO9781951142988.webp?v=1781987816","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-house-on-vesper-sands-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
