"Remember, remember the fifth of November, gunpowder, treason, and plot!"

November 1926. When three ravens die in mysterious circumstances, Inspector Graves and his protégé Constable Carver are sent to the Tower of London to investigate. After all, the ravens belong to the King, and an ancient legend states that if the Tower is without ravens the kingdom will fall!
Once they arrive the detectives find a unique community steeped in secrets. But when a Beefeater is shot dead just yards away from where Graves and Carver are standing, it appears a more sinister plot is underway, a plot that will send shockwaves throughout the Tower and beyond.

As the death toll rises, the detectives find themselves battling an ingenious opponent, someone hiding and killing in plain sight.
To discover the motive behind the mayhem, Inspector Graves must find the answer to some baffling questions... How can a man be killed by a weapon that is in a different building? Why is a hospital patient feigning illness? Why does the schoolteacher deny knowing one of the murder victims? And what is the meaning of the riddle that is haunting Graves?
Ultimately, The Riddle of the Ravens is a case that will prove all too personal for Inspector Graves, and one which will test him to his limits.
