Written under the pen name Jeremy Sturrock, this period mystery presents a richly atmospheric world of taverns, dark alleyways, and corrupt society, where justice is hard-won and danger lurks at every corner. The narrative uncovers a tangled web of villainy with wit and sharp period detail, capturing the crude energy of 18th-century England with authority and colour. Fans of Georgian-era crime fiction will find it a thoroughly entertaining and well-crafted entry in the Bow Street Runner series.
