A taut crime novel from George Baxt, The Affair at Royalties weaves a gripping tale of suspense and lost memory set against an eerie, atmospheric backdrop. Baxt, best known for his cult classic A Queer Kind of Death, brings his signature wit and sharp plotting to this mystery, constructing a story where the past refuses to stay buried. The narrative chronicles a protagonist navigating treacherous secrets and fractured recollections, where nothing — and no one — is quite what they appear. Baxt's prose is stylish and sardonic, cementing his reputation as one of the most distinctive voices in mid-century crime fiction.
