Klappentext
Late-eighties London. A private detective lies dead in a pub car park, an axe in his skull. His murder sets off a chain reaction that pulls in bent coppers, tabloid hacks, and the highest ranks of the British establishment. One killing. One cover-up. Corruption everywhere you look. A hard-boiled crime thriller inspired by the real-life murder of Daniel Morgan.
Stench is a feverish plunge into London crime, where dirty cops, gangsters, and the gutter press, collide in a storm of lies, violence and cocaine powder, that feels both historical and hallucinatory.
Think L. A. Confidential with freemasons, MDMA and London riots.
A startling crime debut from the new voice of Brit noir.
"Stench is a literary Molotov cocktail - blistering, paranoid, and all too plausible." Londonopia
"The soul of a poet living in the body of a crime writer." Katie Isbester, Claret Press
"A vivid, hardcore recreation of murder, conspiracy and corruption... Read it and be thrilled by the darkness that surrounds us." Jon Hotten
Murder Mystery. Historical Crime Thriller. Hard-boiled. Nor. Neo-noir. Brit noir. Police procedural. True crime.
