Murder is the backdrop to the personal dramas played out in this follow-up to the Edgar-nominated DREAMING OF THE BONES. As Scotland Yard detectives Sergeant Gemma James and Superintendent Duncan Kincaid investigate the murder of a young, beautiful tea company owner in the gloomy area of London known as the Isle of Dogs, they continue to probe into the vibrant intricacies of their relationship. Meanwhile, Duncan, who recently discovered that his deceased ex-wife left behind an 11-year-old son, is now experiencing the ups and downs of single fatherhood. But not all of the story takes place behind closed doors. As Gemma and Duncan look into the victim's past, they learn much about the history of the Isle of Dogs, which includes the evacuation of local children during the bombings of World War II.

This comic narrative is based on Twain`s six years of
variegated vagabonding
in the American West at the height of silver-mining fever. Twain`s naive narrator, after immersion in the rough and practical American West, becomes educated in the ways of the world. Twain`s perennial theme of the outsider trying to fit into a society that is alien to him is articulated for the first time in this 1872 book.
