The year is 1757. On a bright June day, Lord John Grey emerges from his club, his mind in turmoil. A nobleman and a high-ranking officer in His Majesty´s Army, Grey has just witnessed something shocking. But his efforts to avoid a scandal that might destroy his familiy are interrupted by something still more urgent: the Crown Appoints him to investigate the brutal murder of a comrade-in-arms, who might well have been a traitor.
Obliged to pursue two inquires at once, Major Grey finds himself ensnared in a web of treachery and betrayal that touches every Level of Society - and threatens all he holds dear. From the bawdy-houses of London´s night world to gehe drawing Rooms of the Nobility, from the blood of a murdered corpse to the thundering seas of the East India Company, Lord Johns follows the elusive Trail of the Woman in green who may hold the key to everything - or to Nothing at all.
