What We Leave Behind by Sion Scott-Wilson

Sammy and Facey are pulled back into the gritty world of London's criminal underworld. This time the stakes are higher than ever as the fate of Sammy's young adopted son hangs in the balance.

"Brilliant narrative voice full of period slang and convincing historical detail The suspenseful denouement is genuinely gripping. A must-read if you enjoyed the first book, and I would recommend the series if you have an interest in history, crime or the macabre, or just appreciate excellent writing." -Goodreads, 5*

"Richly Atmospheric, Grim, and Gritty! Well researched, and a storyline that, whilst grim and gritty, was also peppered with lots of humour, this is another winner for Siôn Scott-Wilson." -Goodreads, 5*

"An adventure in 18th C London, with a clock-ticking conclusion ... A beautiful book" -Goodreads, 5*

"A brilliantly entertaining and fun read. A good story, rich details and unforgettable characters make this a highly recommended read." -Goodreads, 5*

"Cracking historical fiction - a five-star read! Easily one of my new favourites in the historical fiction genre, author Siôn Scott-Wilson’s follow-up to ‘Some Rise by Sin’ has left me wanting more – I was reluctant to leave behind ‘What We Leave Behind’. Is there another in the pipeline? You cannot possibly end there, Mr S-W, that would be a travesty, I tell you! *shakes fist*"
