Murder at Bertram's Bower: A Beacon Hill Mystery Tapa blanda - 2002
de Cynthia Peale
In 1892 Boston, two residents of a home for wayward women known as Bertram Bower are murdered. The proprietress, Agatha Montgomery, knows it will take more than saintly reputations to save the Bower from scandal. With suspects aplenty, rumors circulating, and deep-seated prejudices surfacing, the investigation by brother and sister Addington and Caroline Ames leads them to the secrets of some of Boston's most "respectable" men.

Descripción de la solapa
IN A HAVEN FOR FALLEN WOMEN, HAS HISTORY'S MOST DEPRAVED KILLER RISEN AGAIN?
The Back Bay has been filled in. Palm readers and prostitutes ply their trade in South Cove. And the watchword of the day is "NINA: " No Irish Need Apply. Boston in 1892 is a town of Victorian pride, prejudice, and private passions.
Now, on Beacon Hill, a crusading woman and her genteel brother, Addington, are investigating two grisly murders of young women, the work, say police, of "a deranged person." For Caroline Ames, solving the mystery is a matter of helping an old friend, the woman who runs a home for wayward women known as Bertram's Bower. But for Addington, the investigation will lead to the revelations of a sexually alluring, scandal-struck actress...and to the secrets of some of Boston's most "respectable" men.
As Addington confronts the hypocrisy of Brahmin society, he moves closer to a shocking suspicion about the killer's identity. And as fear grips the city, the evidence points in one frightening direction: that London's Jack the Ripper is alive, well, and killing again. . .
