Lord Lister No. 0308: Het geheim van Waverghem

In the bleak pre‑dawn hours of a London winter, a call crackles through the police headquarters on Downing Street, reporting the murder of Major Wigmore in his West‑End home. The seasoned detectives of Scotland Yard gather in a dimly lit office, the smell of stale coffee mixing with the chill that has slipped into the city. The case promises another unsettling robbery‑turned‑homicide, a pattern that has haunted the force of late.

Enter James Sullivan, a rising star of the Yard, whose reputation for cracking the city's most stubborn crimes has already earned him a place among the elite. At his side is Dorrit Evans, a sharp‑witted apprentice whose ambition to outwit the infamous gentleman thief John Raffles drives her to master every detective skill—from marksmanship to horse riding. Together they set off for Ormond Street, ready to untangle a web of secrets that could expose a deeper conspiracy lurking beneath London's fog.
