Book
The Elgin Conspiracy
First published 2024
A death threat against Lord Elgin draws Dora Fitz-Pennington and Jacob Sandys into the bitter controversy surrounding the classical sculptures removed from Athens. Collectors, politicians and members of Lord Byron's circle all have reasons to challenge Elgin, but the threat suggests that one opponent intends to move beyond public argument.
As Dora and Jacob investigate rival claims to art, ownership and national honour, attempted violence reveals a wider conspiracy. Their case turns the fashionable trade in antiquities into a struggle over evidence and reputation, while their relationship remains vulnerable to family opposition.
