The seventh book in the Sergeant Cribb series by Peter Lovesey
London 1889: After Jerome K Jerome's Three Men in a Boat became a Victorian bestseller rowing on the Thames was the great craze of 1889. When an elementary school teacher in training takes a midnight swim in the Thames and witnesses a body being dumped Sergeant Cribb and Constable Thackerey are called to investigate.
The duo uncover strange parallels with the enormously popular Victorian novel but nobody will take them seriously. Following their instincts they stick doggedly to the trail which leads upstream to Oxford.
Peter Lovesey is the only living author in Britain to have received the two highest honours in crime writing - the Diamond Dagger of the Crime Writers Association and Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America. He started with the Sergeant Cribb series set in Victorian London and later progressed to modern times with the award-winning Peter Diamond books set in Bath, his home for almost twenty years. Now living in Shrewsbury with his wife Jax, whom he met at Reading University, he continues to reach and entertain new readers across the world.
