Description
In this first instalment of the Bow Street Rivals series a riot breaks out in Dartmoor prison, enabling some American inmates to escape. The twin detectives Peter and Paul Skillen catch wind of a projected assassination but the target is unknown. Trouble ensues when a woman from the Home Office vanishes; a mysterious lady turns up at the archery shooting gallery; and Paul’s gambling addiction worsens . . .
What The Critics Said
'Marston is plainly on cracking form. The ratting and boxing scenes in the East End are positively Hogarthian in their depiction of filth and overcrowding; you can almost smell the squalor'
'With characteristic skill, Edward Marston draws the reader into a threatening historical underworld, where the hangman's shadow looms over the unwitting criminal'Good Book Guide
'It looks like Marston has another hit series on his hands'The Aberdeen Press and Journal
