The lost boys of London is a historical mystery set in Tudor England. The story is about Bianca Goddard and her mystery adventure in attempts to find a missing boy in her town. She leads a lonely life. Her husband, John Grunt, is not present as much since he is a soldier in Henry’s war. Bianca has also lost a baby and so really needs a distraction from her life. The death of a few hung people and a particular scarf around their neck causes suspicion and questions in her mind, and that is when the story takes off.
