About this listen

In 1930, the killing of a Soho prostitute is hardly a priority for Scotland Yard. But when a second, similar murder comes to light, and then a third, everything changes. Cuthbert and his team find themselves in a nightmarish world of people-trafficking, prostitution and drug use amongst the upper classes.

Using all his forensic skills, Cuthbert sets out to solve one of the most baffling cases of his career. One final question remains unanswered until a faded photograph reveals its tragic secret.

Content warning: Contains some violence and/or strong language.

Really enjoyed this. Nice writing style; VERY well read. Slightly far fetched story but made believable by the quality of the writing. I’m sorry to have finished it.

Good stuff
