The story unfolds around a gruesome murder of a Grub Street printer and his family, alongside two apprentices, all killed in their sleep within a locked building. The main suspect, a deranged poet found at the scene with a bloody axe, seems to provide a straightforward resolution to the crime. However, as the investigation progresses, the complexities of justice and the darker undercurrents of society are revealed, challenging the initial assumptions about guilt and innocence.
In this third adventure, Sir John Fielding returns in his most baffling case yet. His stepson returns from high seas with tales of storms and a captain overboard. Was it an accident, or was it murder? Fielding is asked to investigate, but discovers considerably more than he'd bargained for. Filled with the authentic sights and sounds of eighteenth-century London, and with a supremely colorful and varied cast of characters, Watery Grave is in every way a delight to read. "Fielding's detection . . . is first-rate. And the period ambiance is both original and persuasive." (The Boston Globe)
