Lady Valerie Meux is a fabulously wealthy socialite in late Victorian London whose every move is keenly followed by Fleet Street's army of reporters always eager to report on her latest wasteful extravagances - But her past is kept a closely guarded secret.

When Valerie discovers that two prostitutes have died in suspicious circumstances she turns to New Scotland Yard to seek the assistance of the only police officer she is certain she can trust, Inspector Peter Randan of the Yard's detective branch.
And so begins a dangerous adventure to track down and arrest one of London's most notorious killers, Dr. Thomas Neil Cream - Otherwise known as 'The Lambeth Poisoner'. Their investigation will take them from the affluent streets of Westminster and into the dark, dingy and vice ridden slums of Lambeth. A world that Valerie is strangely and intimately familiar with.
