The Used Women's Book Club by Paul Bryers
On the night a book group meets to swap novels, the husband of one of its members borrows a flat in which to have an illicit affair. It isn't the first time Larry has made himself scarce for one of Rob's adulterous flings, but tonight Rob is viciously beaten to death with a fisherman's hook. Is a modern-day Jack the Ripper on the loose?
'An unusual literary thriller.. culminating in a maelstrom of accusations and tension as the killer is poised to strike again' Daily Mail 'A satire on contemporary sexual mores and a guided tour of London's murderous past... [treated with] with freshness, wit, and a lively appreciation of a city's dark history' Guardian 'Bryers gives his smart sex comedy a black but hopeful heart and a sharp sense of what it's like to live in contemporary London ... Witty, acerbic, 99.9 per cent excellent' Literary Review 'A slick literary thriller set in modern London, but stalked by Virginia Woolf and Jack the Ripper, both of whom hold clues to the murder' Eve
