The December Rose by Leon Garfield
Secrets whispered up a chimney, a golden locket with a broken chain, murder in the streets of London - and suddenly young Barnacle is plunged into a terrifying mystery. The December Rose is a thrilling tale of deceit, espionage and murder set in the teeming, colourful Victorian London.
Not only a swift thriller. . but a rich comedy . . . and great fun * Guardian *
