Produktbeschreibung
In turn-of-the-century London, a small act of kindness pulls a clubman into a maze of secrets. A troubled young woman seeks help, then slips away, leaving a false address and a deep unease. Soon after, a beloved crucifix turns to ash in his hand, a sign that someone is mocking what is holy. Across town, a rising lawmaker is found dead without a clear cause, baffling doctors and police. Clues point to a hidden order that steals church items for dark rites, recruits the lonely, and keeps mouths shut. A gifted preacher is caught in the same net, and the search runs from bright clubs to back-street rooms, showing how fear and desire can be used as chains. What starts as courtesy becomes a hunt for truth as the circle tightens and the cost of knowledge grows. This is a London of glitter and grime, where modern life hides an old, hungry darkness.
