Description
Deep in London's darkest alleys, secrets are bought and sold for a steep price. When respected solicitor Leighton Duff is found dead in sunless Water Lane, his son Rhys is left fighting for life. As the police struggle to make sense of these brutal attacks, William Monk and nurse-turned-sleuth Hester Latterly begin to unravel a complex web of violence that threatens to destroy their city. Their investigation leads them down a dark path, where the lines between right and wrong are constantly blurred. But as they dig deeper, they uncover a shocking connection between Duff's murder and a series of brutal assaults on local prostitutes. The case takes a devastating turn, revealing a sinister truth that will leave readers on the edge of their seats. With its gripping plot and atmospheric setting, this novel is a worthwhile read for fans of crime fiction.
