Trial in session at ‘The Old Bailey, Known Also as the Central Criminal Court’ — 1808 illustration by Thomas Rowlandson and Augustus Pugin, published in Volume 2 of The Microcosm of London: or, London in Miniature | Public Domain
Sana Pirzada, author of the intriguing gothic romance novel The Rose Within and short story collection Vernon Hall and Other Stories, returns to enthral her readers, this time with a legal thriller set in Victorian London, in which the strenuous fight for truth and justice comes to the fore.
Departing somewhat from the genre of Pirzada’s previous works, Naomi Byron is an enticing piece of historical fiction, with a murder mystery at its heart, and with this classic whodunnit, Pirzada yet again proves her talent for exquisite storytelling.
