Amateur photographer Sarah Bain is all alone in the world. Her father died long ago and her mother is recently deceased. The only part of her past that she has are her memories and her father's studio; a business that she's struggling to keep afloat. Most of her money comes from the selling of boudoir photographs, something that will land her in jail if she gets caught. The models for these photos are prostitutes, one of whom turns up brutally murdered one day. Sarah thinks nothing of it until another model meets a similar end. It isn't until a third model dies that Sarah's suspicions are confirmed: the murderer is using her photographs to pick their victims.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Unable and unwilling to inform the police, Sarah begins to investigate her model's deaths on her own. During her investigation, her friend Catharine Price- an aspiring actress- joins in, as does Lord Hugh Staunton, a charming nobleman; Mick O'Reilly, a street urchin; and Abraham Lipsky, a Jewish butcher, and his wife Rachel. Together, this motley crew of outcasts must solve the Crime of the Century before anymore harm can come to the ladies of the streets.Sarah Bain is a series of historical mystery novels by Laura Joh Rowland. They are set in Victorian England, towards the end of the 19th century.The books included in this series are: The Ripper's Shadow (2017) A Mortal Likeness (2018) The Hangman's Secret (2019) The Woman in the Veil (2020) Portrait of Peril (2021) Garden of Sins (2022) River of Fallen Angels (2023)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Sarah Bain / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Garden of Sins. Benjamin Bain is legally exonerated for Ellen Casey's death thanks to Sarah's efforts. But they are left estranged as she broke her promise not to expose the late Mary Bain's role in the murder (or at least what they'd all believed was her role prior to the new evidence revealed in this novel). Sally's also left estranged from her own mother after the latter testified against Benjamin to punish him (and out of a misguided attempt to protect Sally). Mick's budding romantic relationship with Anjali ends due to her nearly being killed during the book's investigation and her father's demands. Hugh is still struggling with suicidal depression. Barrett's forced to be an accessory to another police coverup and his lifelong relationship with Jane Lambert's all but destroyed after she tries to break up his marriage. Finally, thanks to the devil's bargain she almost struck with Reid, the Inspector has been vindicated in his belief that Sarah and her friends are withholding evidence from the Ripper murders. So Sarah knows Reid will be coming after all of them again with renewed vigor.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Betrayal Insurance | |
| Sarah Bain / int_803e411 | comment |
River of Fallen Angels, with more emphasis on the sweet than the bitter. The resolution of the Torso Murderer case resolves many of the ongoing crises and problems for Sarah and the rest of the cast. Reid is left indebted to them for saving his career from disastrous ruination and they have Betrayal Insurance if he ever breaks the deal Sarah struck. Reid also ends his private war with the Barretts for now, believing the Torso Murderer was also the Ripper and that Sarah's 'secret knowledge' was a Red Herring this whole time. Hugh and Dr. Lewis are also now together and Mick and Anjali have resumed their own romance (with the grudging blessing of her father). On the other hand, Sarah and Sally are still estranged from both their parents after the events of the previous novel. Sally's role in cracking the case (thanks to Sarah's deal with Reid) has also made her professional career — and this ironically isn't a good thing for the characters, because Sir Gerald now wants her to start digging into the Ripper Case with a fresh perspective. Sarah is rightly worried that Sally's stubborn determination (and her mounting suspicions that her half-sister, brother-in-law, and friends are all withholding information about the murders from her) may still end up exposing their role after all. | |
