Act of Murder by Alan Wright

Act of Murder by Alan Wright

Wigan, 1894. Richard Throstle and his wife Georgina are in town with their ghoulish magic lantern show, Phantasmagoria. When Richard is found murdered in his hotel room, police sergeant Slevin takes charge of the investigation. Meanwhile, at the Royal Court Theatre, the Morgan-Drew Players theatre troupe harbour many dark secrets. An ambitious, rambunctious murder mystery, Act of Murder is a tale of magic, pornography and poisonings - with some gruesome murders thrown in for good measure.

Alan J Wright was born in Wigan in 1951. He graduated from Leeds University and taught English for several years in secondary schools. He works as a Secondary Consultant for the Graduate Teacher Programme. He has written three musical plays and, in 2009, was shortlisted for the Crime Writers' Association Debut Dagger Award. He is married with three grown-up children, and loves all things Victorian.
