The Shadows of Kensington Gore

£21 · Offered by Goldsboro Books

Knives Out meets Sherlock in the must-read new historical murder mystery from the Times bestselling author of The Murder at World's End. F or fans of Anthony Horowitz, Tom Hindle and Janice Hallett. London, 1911. Coronation fever. Suffragette unrest. A city crackling with tension. When a policeman is found brutally murdered on the streets of Kensington, blame falls on the three women seen fleeing the scene. Their sole witness? Stephen Pike: ex-borstal boy, under-butler extraordinaire and assistant to the most unconventional detective in London, Miss Decima Stockingham. Sharp-tongued, fearless and bored of behaving herself, she’s the only one able to see that this case is not what it seems. Aided by an invisible network of maids – their eyes and ears in every house in London – this unlikely duo must catch the killer before time runs out. But in a city dazzled by ceremony and divided by change, you never know what might be lurking in the shadows… READERS CANNOT WAIT FOR THE SHADOWS OF KENSINGTON GORE: 'I can't wait for the next book in this stunning new series' - Janice Hallett, bestselling author of The Appeal 'This is going to be a great series.
