    About this ebook

    When a ruthless gangster threatens his old military friend, hardboiled detective Paul Henslowe intervenes... only to find himself working for a client on the wrong side of the law. When a series of cryptic blackmail letters plunges Henslowe into a decades-old murder, he follows a trail that leads him from a mysterious cult leader in the South Seas to a decaying lunatic asylum nestled among the City's most powerful banks. Henslowe knows that if he doesn’t solve the case, his friend will die... but if he does, many others will die in his place.

    The Quality of Mercy is an eldritch tale of madness and betrayal that asks whether kindness and mercy can survive in a world so corrupted by greed and violence.
