Set in the swirling fog and cobbled streets of Victorian England, a novel of would-be murderers form a secret society to discuss their darkest desires of killing someone.
Acquainted through Guildhall trade meetings, The Murder Club consists of a butcher, a skinner, a tailor, a weaver and a merchant. They reveal their intended victims, admit motives for each kill and divulge their planned methods of execution.
However, the predators and their prey are harbouring secrets and hidden agendas and soon no one knows who to trust in this twisted gothic horror.
Excellent story telling by the author, enjoyed the characters and all the twists and turns, by far the best of a good set blood curdling books by Christine Holt definitely one not to be missed.
