Elizabeth Glendinning QC has lost faith in the legal system. In an
attempt to restore it, she has secretly devised a scheme to bring
back to court a guilty man - Graham Riley - whom she had
successfully defended some ten years before. As part of an
elaborate contingency plan, Elizabeth leaves the unsuspecting
Father Anselm with a key to a safety deposit box, to be opened in
the event of her death. Three weeks later she is found dead in the
East End of London and, once the box has been opened, a chain of
events is triggered as if from beyond the grave, leading Anselm to
fulfil what Elizabeth has begun. A powerful portrait of the dark
heart of London and a tense thriller, THE GARDENS OF THE DEAD
confirms William Brodrick's growing critical reputation.
