An Unlamented Death: A Mystery Set In Georgian England (Mysteries Of Georgian Norfolk Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
Mrs. Bascom naturally turned to take it, looking surprised that any should call so early in the day, but the maid moved it from her reach. ‘Beg pardon, madam, it is for Dr. Bascom. I have asked the gentleman to wait in the small parlour.’ Mother and son looked at one another in surprise. ‘Who knows I am here?’ Adam said, ‘and has the temerity to call at such an hour?’ ‘Take the card and see,’ his mother said. ‘What is the name on it?’ So great was Adam’s puzzlement that he merely passed her the card. ‘Mr. Percival Wicken,’ she said. ‘Do you know him? The name means nothing to me.’ ‘I know nothing of him,’ Adam said. ‘Whoever can it be?’ When Adam entered the small parlour a few moments later, he knew the answer immediately. The tall, elegant man standing before him was undoubtedly the one Capt. Mimms had pointed out to him at the inquest. Then he had been in company with the bishop’s chaplain and much interested in what happened.
