When a diamond robbery and a murder throw a wealthy household into turmoil, a shrewd detective must sift through secrets, disguises, and false trails to expose the guilty. Lawrence L. Lynch—pen name of a former private detective—brings insider knowledge to a twisting Victorian mystery full of intrigue and suspense. Popular in its day, the novel delivers the sensational plotting and clever detection that thrilled nineteenth-century readers. An enjoyable early example of American detective fiction, The Diamond Coterie offers the pleasures of a classic whodunit with plenty of period atmosphere and ingenuity.
