Dangerous Practice

Dangerous Practice, the finale of the Lucy Sedgwick trilogy (after Guilty Knowledge and The Colour of Blood), finds the impulsive Londoner recently remarried and hot on the trail of another crime in this detailed period mystery. One of her new husband's patients seems to have attempted suicide, but Lucy thinks it's attempted murder and her search for the truth looks like it might have lethal consequences in Clare Curzon's engaging post-WWI whodunit.
