Detective Briony Williams is a rookie appointed to an all-male team
investigating a bizarre murder at an anatomy college in Bloomsbury. Her
superiors constantly make her feel left out. But a killer obsessed with
following Jack the Ripper soon changes that. The killer is a practiced
anatomist with a theatrical streak. He arranges his victims bodies in
cruel parodies of famous satirical engravings by Hogarth.
As the summer and the swinging '60s wind to a terrible climax, this
multi-layered thriller brings the startling and terrible strands of the
story together. The Walker is an unforgettable crime debut that
heralds a major new voice in crime writing.
