When the chairman of London’s Thirteen Club wakes to find 13 dead rabbits in his bedroom, he hires Jack Merrit to track down the intruder. The questions are many: Why were the rabbits each missing a foot? How did someone break in through bolted doors, and what is the criminal’s goal?
Jack and Baxter face a table of thirteen suspects. Among them are Jack himself and his lover, Larkin Chase. The case becomes a personal minefield as the mystery thickens, and when a more chilling threat appears in the same impenetrable house, a disturbing story from the property’s past intrudes into the present.
As Will Merrit investigates suspicious events from thirty years ago, Jack and Baxter move in on their only suspect. Except, this is a game of opposites, superstitions and deception, and when the truth finally comes to light, Jack faces the most difficult decision of his career.
Set against the background of the Thirteen Club, one of the city’s more eccentric dining clubs of the late 19th century, ‘A Night of Opposites’ is the eleventh book in The Delamere Files series. The books are best read in order.
