Description

Prelude to a Certain Midnight by Gerald Kersh is a gripping mystery set in 1930s London. A sex killer is stalking the city's afternoon fog, searching for his next victim - a schoolgirl.

As Detective-Inspector 'Dick' Turpin struggles to track down the killer, it becomes clear that he is no match for this cunning predator. Enter Miss Asta Thundersley, a determined do-gooder who takes matters into her own hands. She invites the suspects from the Bar Bacchus to a party, where she hopes to loosen their tongues and uncover the truth.

This tense and atmospheric novel explores the darker side of human nature, as two formidable adversaries engage in a cat-and-mouse game through the streets of London. With its intricate plot and complex characters, Prelude to a Certain Midnight is a gripping pacey read that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
