Description
Thomas De Quincey's life has been marked by darkness and obsession. Now, as a notorious 'opium-eater', he finds himself at the centre of a sinister game in Victorian London. A series of murders is being re-enacted, using his own writings as inspiration, and it's up to him to uncover the truth before it's too late. As De Quincey delves into the mystery, secrets long buried begin to surface, threatening to destroy everything he thought he knew about himself and those around him. With the killer closing in, De Quincey must navigate a complex web of lies and deceit to find justice. In this gripping thriller, the lines between reality and art are blurred, and the very fabric of London is torn apart by the pursuit of truth and revenge.
