A diabolical tale of retribution cast against the greatest debate of its time.Darwin's theory of evolution is the fascinating background for this tragic story of seemingly unrelated events. Award-winning author Lyn Squire has done it again with an extraordinary follow-up to Immortalised to Death. Set in Victorian England amidst the furor triggered by Charles Darwin's revolutionary theory, Fatally Inferior plunges Dunston Burnett, the series' unassuming but sometimes insightful amateur sleuth, into a cauldron churning with secrets and lies. An abduction -- the victim mysteriously vanishing from a locked-tight country house.A birth -- the newborn torn from its mother's arms. These seemingly independent incidents converge in a vile act of vengeance: a hellish torture for the victim; the perfect revenge for the perpetrator. Will Dunston ever be able to expose the heart of this dark, confounding mystery?

LYN SQUIRE was born in Cardiff, South Wales. He earned his bachelor's degree at the University of Wales, his master's at the London School of Economics and his doctorate at Cambridge University. Lyn is now an American citizen living in Virginia. During a twenty-five-year career at the World Bank, he published over thirty articles and several books within his area of expertise. Lyn also served as editor of the Middle East Development Journal for over a decade, and was the founding president of the Global Development Network, an organization dedicated to supporting promising scholars from the developing world. An avid reader of whodunits, Lyn has reviewed scores of mysteries for the City Book Review (Sacramento, CA), and now devotes his time to writing his own stories. His debut novel, Immortalised to Death, introduces Dunston Burnett, a non-conventional amateur detective, whose adventures continue in Fatally Inferior and The Séance of Murder, the second and third books in The Dunston Burnett Trilogy.
