THE WHISPERING GALLERY
Mark Sanderson

London, 1937

On a sweltering July afternoon, news reporter John Steadman is summoning up the courage to propose to his girlfriend Stella in St Paul's Cathedral. Seconds later, a man falls to his death - killing a priest in the process.

Did he jump or was he pushed?

Two days later a series of grim packages start arriving at the Daily News. Body parts and cryptic clues point to the identity of the next victim: Johnny himself. As if that weren't enough, Stella is missing. Johnny must put his own life on the line as he attempts to bring a twisted killer to justice.

Praise for Mark Sanderson:

“A terrific plot with some wonderful set pieces... the author has a great feel for period detail” - Guardian

“Sanderson relishes the louche and smoky milieu where police and press rub shoulders with sexual adventurers and criminals, and he describes it with considerable verve” - Spectator
