One of the Family (1993) was the last novel written by Monica Dickens, the great granddaughter of Charles Dickens. It is set in Edwardian London where the world, like main character Leonard Morley's life, is changing.
Plot
The story starts when Leonard Morley receives a threatening note. Over time more of these notes turn up, and when the fourth has found its way to Morley, he resolves to tell his manager, William Whiteley. Before Morley can speak to him, Whiteley is shot and killed. In the end, Horace Rayner is charged with murder, Morley testifies at the trial, and Rayner is sentenced to life imprisonment.
