Beschreibung
London, 1863
A gentleman. A pickpocket. An unlikely alliance.
When a chance encounter brings together two men from opposite worlds, mistrust and resentment run deep. Lloyd Webster, the privileged son of a baronet, is an idealist who values his reputation. Ezra Taylor, a streetwise pickpocket, knows only how to fight for his survival. But when they are falsely accused of a crime, the two must learn to rely on one another in ways neither could have imagined.
Their search for the truth uncovers a scandal that threatens to shake the very foundations of Victorian society.
With danger looming, they not only have to overcome their differences but also confront their pasts - and secrets they would rather keep hidden.
Set in the shadowy streets and gaslit parlours of 19th century London, Death of a Victorian Gentleman is a gripping tale of mystery, courage, and a friendship that defies the conventions of its time.

Über den Autor
Tay R. Dornie comes from a bilingual English and German background. Her love of literature began in childhood. She began writing poetry and short stories in her youth. Over time, she developed a deep interest in the Victorian era, which has since become the foundation of her work in historical fiction.
When not writing, she runs a traditional British-style teashop with a small, welcoming tearoom in Franconia, Southern Germany - where she is often found surrounded by the scent of Earl Grey, the comfort of freshly baked scones with clotted cream, and just a touch of London fog.

Tay R. Dornie ist zweisprachig aufgewachsen (Englisch und Deutsch). Ihre Liebe zur Literatur begann bereits in der Kindheit, und schon in ihrer Jugend schrieb sie Gedichte und Kurzgeschichten. Mit der Zeit entwickelte sie eine besondere Faszination für die viktorianische Epoche - ein Interesse, das heute die Grundlage ihrer historischen Romane bildet.
Wenn sie nicht schreibt, führt sie in Franken, Süddeutschland, einen traditionellen britischen Teeladen mit einer kleinen, gemütlichen Teestube - umgeben vom Duft frisch aufgebrühten Earl Greys, ofenfrischer Scones mit Clotted Cream und einem Hauch von Londoner Nebel.
