An Anne Perry Pitt Mystery book. Anne seems to write historical fiction, at least from what I have read of her work thus far. This is at least the second Anne Perry book I have read. Both have featured Pitt and his wife Charlotte. The Victorian period is excellent evoked in these works - including social mores. This particular work focuses on a murder where the victim is posed sort of like Ophelia from a painting. It also features more of Oscar Wilde who apparently makes an appearance in other Pitt mysteries. Perhaps. Who knows. I liked it overall, though it was a bit wordy for my taste. Maybe something to do with the Victorian Period...
