Ruddick, James Death at the Priory: Love, Sex and Murder in Victorian England
0871138328 / 9780871138323; NEW - In 1875, the beautiful widow Florence Ricardo married the handsome and successful young attorney Charles Bravo, hoping to escape the scandals of her past. As they settled into the Priory, her posh mansion outside London, the couple seemed to be living a charmed life. But Bravo proved to be a brutal and conniving man; the marriage was not happy. Then one night while preparing for bed, Bravo suddenly collapsed. Though the greatest English physicians of the era were summoned to his side, they could do nothing, and three days later he died an agonizing death. The doctors agreed that Charles Bravo had been poisoned. The investigation dominated the press for weeks, as the list of suspects grew to include Florence; her secret lover, the eminent doctor James Gully; Mrs. Cox, her longtime companion. But ultimately no murderer could be determined, and despite the efforts of numerous historians, criminologists and other writers, the case has never been definitely solved. Until now. 209 pages including an index, list of references, and 8 pages of photographs. The endpapers show the layout of the Priory. The jacket has some scuffing on the back. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
