**The Enrights return for their most shocking case yet!

*Innocent lives are being taken in Victorian England…** *

**London, 1896**

Detective Sergeant Jack Enright, recently transferred to the rural backwaters of Essex, is disgusted to find reports of the discovery of three infant corpses in as many months.

It soon becomes clear that his uncle, Percy, working in London’s Scotland Yard has also uncovered cases of babies being murdered.

These clearly are not one-off acts of desperation by impoverished mothers, but a widespread plot to take young lives.

**Who is behind these baby killings? Can they be stopped? *

And will Esther find herself, once more, at the heart of the investigation…?***

**THE MERCY KILLINGS** is the sixth crime thriller in an exciting new historical series, the Esther and Jack Enright Mysteries, a traditional British detective series set in Victorian London and packed full of suspense.
