    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.

      Few 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.
