Pentecost Alley
Charlotte & Thomas Pitt • Book 16
by Anne Perry
Narrated by Jenny Sterlin
About This Audiobook
The ritual murder of a Whitechapel prostitute would normally pass unremarked in Victorian London, but an inscribed badge found beneath her body connects the crime to Finlay Fitzjames, the son of one of the city's most powerful men. Superintendent Thomas Pitt is under immediate and unmistakable pressure to find a more convenient suspect. He refuses, and the investigation twists through layers of privilege, blackmail, and concealed history while Charlotte works the case from the social angles her husband cannot access.
Jenny Sterlin's narration carries the full weight of Anne Perry's Victorian world, balancing the procedural investigation with the moral undertow that gives the Pitt series its staying power. Pentecost Alley won the Edgar Award for Best Novel, and Sterlin's performance honors that distinction, giving the class tensions and human contradictions at the story's center the depth they deserve across nearly sixteen and a half hours.
