Publisher's Synopsis
A murder close to home. A tangled web of murder and revenge. Can amateur sleuth Denton keep himself and London safe?
When a mysterious Polish woman is murdered next door, Denton suspects there is more than meets the eye. Could the murdered woman be the victim of some sort of political conspiracy?
As Denton gets drawn into the case, he realises that the life of Lydia Alken was more dangerous than he could have ever imagined. Encountering political unrest and falling victim to the fledgling British Intelligence Service, Denton discovers London is a hotbed of anarchist plotting threatening its future.
