A proposito di questo titolo
 It's May 1935, and while the rest of England is decked in red, white and blue for the King's silver jubilee, the detective agency in Birmingham's Needless Alley remains unpatriotically down at heel.

With the bailiffs at their door, private enquiry agents William Garrett and Phyll Hall are relieved to take on what appears to be a straightforward and lucrative case. Respectable spinster Myfanwy Davies is dying and wishes to be reconciled with her estranged sister - her only living relative - before it's too late.

In their search for the missing woman, William and Phyll are drawn into a complex web of murder and intrigue, as they journey from the glamorous world of Britain's burgeoning film industry to the sinisterly genteel headquarters of an apocalyptic cult.

Just who is Myfanwy Davies? Where is her sister? In a case that is anything but straightforward, it's not long before death casts its long shadow over the investigation.

Recensioni della critica

Praise for the author - -
A fine writer with a great sense of period and place who creates an atmosphere of mounting menace and dread. A more than promising debut
Marlow's very engaging protagonist may herald the birth of a new genre: Midlands Noir
Conjures up a backdrop so vivid you can taste the smoke in the air . . . one of those books that runs like a movie in your head and leaves greasy fingerprints all over your memory (Val McDermid, author of 1989)
