Royal vice. Taylor E.

A terrible find. It is dangerous to be close to Charles II: sometimes one wrong step leads to a shame, expulsion and even death. For the place at the throne, the most high -ranking nobles of England fight. And the scales of Libra may not be inclined in favor of Lord Clarendon, when a dead man is found in the well of his house. Who is the killer? James Marwood, a clerk in the government service, was entrusted with the investigation of this case, which in no case should become the property of publicity. Meanwhile, Marwood knows a person who has every reason to wish for the death of Edward Alderley, found by the dead, is his cousin Katherine Lovett, the daughter of the Tinash. Many evidence indicates it. Now she can be sent to a scaffold. The bets are high as never before. Marwood is sure that Kat is innocent, so he decides to find a real killer. But time is running out. If he makes a mistake, this can threaten the reputation of the king himself.
