| Synopsis: |
London, 1883: All is quiet at 125 Gower Street. Sidney Grice is swotting up on the anatomical structure of human hair whilst his ward, March Middleton, sneaks upstairs for her eighth secret cigarette of the day. The household is, perhaps, too quiet. So, when a beautiful young woman turns up at the door, imploring London's foremost personal detective to solve the mystery of her father's murder, Grice can barely disguise his glee. Mr Nathan Garstang was found slaughtered in his bed, but there is no trace of a weapon or intruder. A classic locked-room case. But what piques Grice's interest is the crime's link to one of London's most notorious unsolved murders... What people are saying about THE SECRETS OF GASLIGHT LANE: 'I felt like I was leaving friends behind when I came to the end' 'These books are a total delight' 'Witty, entertaining, and clever' 'Deserves, and needs, to be read over and over again' |
