A Thrilling Murder Mystery set in 18th-century England Dr. Adam Bascom, called to help a man who's been brutally assaulted, is drawn into solving a series of murders in a world of deceit, violence and treachery. Murder and mystery return to the life of 18th-century gentleman physician, Dr. Adam Bascom. Bored with the tedium of his country practice, Adam finds himself called urgently to Norwich to treat a young man assaulted and left with total memory loss. Other mysteries follow thick and fast. What caused the man to walk alone, at night, along the deserted river bank? Who murdered a King's Messenger and dumped his body in the river? How did a file of secret government papers go missing and how could a local miller have been killed twice in quick succession? Helped by his friend, Peter Lassimer, his mother's companion, Miss Sophia LaSalle, and a cast of characters old and new, Adam must disentangle the mass of lies, intrigue and deception that form "the code for killing".
