About this audiobook
Victorian London is gripped by fear as a serial killer slays an apparently random victim on Hampstead Heath every month. Two men begin to suspect a mysterious link between the victims: Major Henry Steele and ex-Sergeant Mason have been discreetly retired from Military Intelligence and now work as private investigators, and are helping Scotland Yard hunt the so-called "Heath Maniac." Their search takes them to houses on the heath where certain residents hold secrets, a vivisectionist’s laboratory, and the bedside of a dying comedian. They must fight for their lives in an ambush on Hampstead Heath, before the maniac is finally exposed in a shattering climax.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Few contemporary authors capture the colour of Victorian England so well. An excellent mystery well crafted and well read. It’s unfortunate that there aren’t more books by this author.
