London, 1867:  Algernon Swinburne is a famous and successful poet.  When one of his old school chums is stabbed to death, Algernon is determined to bring the murderer to justice.
Algernon’s investigation involves him with both the Society for the Suppression of Vice and a member of the royal family: an unhappy mixture.  His investigation also lays bare a record of blackmail, murder and sin in high places.
