Dan Leno and The Limehouse Golem


'Set in a pea-soup foggy Victorian London in the world of music hall and pantomime, Dan Leno and the Limehouse Golem begins with the death-by-hanging of Elizabeth Cree for the murder of her husband. But was she guilty? What terrible secret was she hiding? And what are we to make of the late Mr Cree whose journal begins: "It was a fine bright morning and I could feel a murder coming on?" I could feel those goosebumps coming on from page one...this brilliant novel pervades the midnight movies of the mind and makes the blood run chilly' Daily Mail.
