Londres 1892. Une femme est sauvagement assassinée dans le quartier pauvre de Whitechapel. Désemparée par l'inefficacité de la police, la mère de la victime engage Sidney Grice, le plus célèbre détective privé de Londres. D'une intelligence acérée, l'homme est d'une efficacité redoutable. Il pense que le "sexe faible" n'a pas sa place dans un cabinet de détective, mais il fait tout de même appel à March Middleton, une jeune femme excentrique un peu trop portée sur le gin, pour l'assister. L'irrésistible duo mène l'enquête et découvre que le mystérieux meurtre n'était que le premier d'une sinistre série.

Sa dernière enquête a mené un homme innocent à la potence... Autant dire que le détective Sydney Grice n'est plus vraiment en odeur de sainteté à Londres. Boudé par ses clients, le "plus grand détective de tout l'empire britannique" dépérit. March Middelton, son excentrique acolyte du "sexe faible", commence à sérieusement s'inquiéter. Jusqu'à ce qu'un individu, membre de l'effrayant "Club du dernier survivant", fasse appel aux services de Sydney... et ait l'impudence de passer de vie à trépas dans son salon !

My name is Landon Hamilton. I died five years ago, except I didn’t get to rest in peace like most of the departed. Instead, I was tapped by Dante (yes, that Dante) in Purgatory to become his champion and save humankind from the rest of the Divine - you know, angels and demons and their mortal followers. Yeah, I saved the world; but my vampire almost-girlfriend, Rebecca, stabbed me in the back (literally); I was forced to kill my angel best-friend, Josette; I’ve got a snarky werewolf taking up residence in my soul; and to be honest, I’m getting tired of the whole damn thing.
