Ghost of the Thames

Spine-tingling suspense and heart-throbbing romance in a poignant and unpredictable tale of Victorian London!

Captain Edward Seymour—the last of a long line of distinguished Royal Navy officers—has returned from sea to find that his niece has disappeared. Combing every inn and hellhole of the city’s darkest corners, he desperately hopes to find some trace of the girl. Then one night, as he returns home from yet another fruitless search, a mysterious woman falls under his carriage.

With no idea of who or where she is, Sophy finds herself being led from the cold, murky waters of the Thames through danger-filled alleyways of London by a ghost...and into the path of Seymour’s horses.

Fate...or the supernatural...has thrown them together. But Sophy needs to solve the mystery of her identity, and Edward Seymour is the only person who can help her.

This timely exciting Victorian suspense works because May McGoldrick uses the expected romantic subplot as a secondary enhancer to somewhat lighten the horrific conditions in Dickensian London that place females and children, even so called protected ones, in peril as items for commodity exchange. The atmosphere is dark and gloomy while Sophy struggles with amnesia and Edward with his missing niece. Dickens adds a nice twist to the perils of Sophy.
