March, 1896. Motherhood and work as a private detective don't easily go hand-in-hand, but Vanessa is determined to give it a try. Four years have passed since her last major investigation and since then Vanessa's personal life has radically changed; she has married Arthur Weaterburn and now has two delightful little toddlers, Cecily and Cedric. Being a wife and mother has meant that she's had to give up her beloved teaching job, but Vanessa has been kept busy by a string of requests asking for her help in solving troubling cases.

  • ""A famous--and famously anti-Semitic--professor has been killed, shot in his own library, and the police, eager to close the books on the murder, have arrested a young Jewish man who was conveniently on the scene. But this is 1896, and with the notorious "Dreyfus Affair" much in the news, Vanessa Weatherburn has real questions about his guilt and about England's casual bigotry. Finding the truth will take Vanessa deep into London's Hassidic community, where she struggles to understand the customs of a foreign country. But the effort will pay off, if only because it sheds some surprising light on a peculiar passion of Vanessa's--a problem in mathematical logic posed by that young firebrand, Bertrand Russell, and known as ... the Library Paradox."--Back cover."@en
