Like a John Le Carre thriller, but instead of British agents conspiring against Soviet Russia, here we have Latvian anarcho-communists agitating against Czarist Russia from their HQ-in-exile in Whitechapel.

Extremely well written book that takes you to pre first world war London. The characters come alive on the pages. Based on real events, now referred to as the Siege of Sydney Street. Excellent read.

A sort of pulpy film-noir with Latvian anarchists in Edwardian East London
