James Wright, the lead detective of the new Clearwater Detective Agency, faces a pair of unsolvable problems.
Life is going well for Jasper and Billy. Young, talented, and falling in love, the two can look forward to a rosy future. But Billy’s master, Colonel Ware, is slowly being poisoned, and if he dies, Billy’s family will be forced to emigrate.
It falls to James to investigate the poisoning, but there are no suspects and no motives. Worse, if he fails, a good man will die, and Jasper and Billy will never know the fullness of their love.
Enlisting the help of brilliant, but scatter-brained, Dr Markland while mentoring Jasper through the pain of his first love, James embarks on a mystery that takes him from the Greychurch morgue to Ireland, where tide and time wait for no man. It is a journey of discovery, both scientific and emotional.
‘One of a Pair’ is a mild-heat, romantic mystery with some comedy, and the eighth book in the ongoing Clearwater Mystery series. It is a follow up to ‘Home From Nowhere.’ You’ll get most enjoyment by starting with book one, ‘Deviant Desire’ and following the famed adventures of Lord Clearwater and his crew of loyal friends as they negotiate the villains and homophobia of Victorian London.
