London, 1716. Revenge is a dish best served ice-cold…’An
immersive, action-packed thriller with intrigue in the air and
threats around every corner’ The Herald ’Great fun ... the
language is colourful and the action never stops’ Laura
Shepherd-Robinson The city is caught in the vice-like grip of a
savage winter. Even the Thames has frozen over. But for Jonas Flynt
– thief, gambler, killer – the chilling elements are the least
of his worries… Justice Geoffrey Dumont has been found dead at
the base of St Paul’s cathedral, and a young male sex-worker, Sam
Yates, has been taken into custody for the murder. Yates denies all
charges, claiming he had received a message to meet the judge at
the exact time of death. The young man is a friend of courtesan
Belle St Clair, and she asks Flynt to investigate. As Sam endures
the horrors of Newgate prison, they must do everything in their
power to uncover the truth and save an innocent life, before the
bodies begin to pile up. But time is running out. And the gallows
are beckoning... A totally enrapturing portrayal of
eighteenth-century London, and a rapier-like crime thriller,
perfect for fans of Laura Shepherd-Robinson, Antonia Hodgson and
Ambrose Parry.
