A fabulous follow up to D: Whitby’s Darkest Secret.
Victoria and Albert have returned to London, after the events in Whitby, and they’ve taken Tom with them and given him a home. They all believe that the killer has been caught. Unfortunately, they’re wrong and he’s on their trail.
Victoria’s sister, Lucy, is staying with them following the death of her husband and her visits, on her own, to a church and a public house give D the opportunity to befriend her, as a means of getting back at Victoria.
This book, like the previous one, is written mainly from Victoria and D’s points of view, along with chapters from Tom, Lucy and Detective Matthews. This brings insight into the thoughts and motives behind the characters actions and allows you to get to know them.
At the risk of repeating myself, I was once again walking in Victoria’s shoes, this time, through a dangerous 1900’s London.
Another great book from Chris Turnbull, with an unexpected twist at the end… and the possibility of more to come in this series.

A brilliant sequel. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the book waiting to see how things all turn out for everyone. I was surprised with the twist at the end very ingenious.
Chris is a brilliant writer and you can tell he loves to research into the settings of his stories and does all of this so well.
I loved the voices of each character and hearing their feelings about what is happening and how they feel. Just very unique and different.
Really enjoyed it!
