Description

Inspector William Monk's latest case proves to be a complex web of deceit and corruption. In 1864, he has captured Jericho Phillips, a man suspected of brutal murder and running a child prostitution ring. However, at trial, justice does not prevail due to missing evidence, and Phillips is released. Monk is forced to start the investigation again, delving deeper into London's dark underworld in search of the truth. As he digs, he uncovers shocking secrets that suggest Durban, his former commander, may have had ulterior motives for pursuing Phillips. The case takes a surprising turn when Monk realizes that support for Phillips may extend far beyond the city's seedy underbelly. A gripping mystery that exposes the darker side of Victorian London, Execution Dock is a thrilling tale of justice, corruption and deception.
