In this spellbinding, superbly-written trio of murder mysteries, Keith Heller follows the career of George Man, a parish watchman in 18th-century London ‹ then among the seamiest, most dangerous cities in the world. As Man works the watch, patrolling its fetid slums and treacherous back streets, he opens the door to an underworld of thieves and prostitutes, white slavers and murders.
