What this book is about

A wealthy man assaults a woman and uses his social position to ensure she cannot seek justice — but when he turns up dead, the investigation draws Thomas Pitt into a devastating examination of how Victorian law fails its most vulnerable citizens. Midnight at Marble Arch is one of Anne Perry's most socially charged novels, confronting sexual violence and institutional injustice in the rigidly hierarchical world of late Victorian England.
