considerable skill' The Times
Nowhere to hide.
London, 1896. As winter grips the city, a group of African travellers
seek sanctuary inside the walls of the Quaker Meeting House. They are
being hunted by a ruthless showman, who is forcing them to perform in
his ethnic exhibition in the London Aquarium.
Nowhere to turn.
Private investigator William Arrowood and his assistant Barnett agree to
help the travellers avoid capture. But when they arrive at the Meeting
House, they find a scene of devastation. Two people have been murdered
and the others have fled into the night.
Nowhere to run.
The hunt for the real killer leads Arrowood into the dark heart of
Victorian London. A shadowy world of freak shows, violence and betrayal,
where there are no good choices and only the slimmest chance of
survival...
