About this listen
July 1794, and the streets of London are filled with rumours of revolution. Laurence Jago - clerk to the Foreign Office - is ever more reliant on the Black Drop to ease his nightmares. A highly sensitive letter has been leaked to the press, and Laurence is a suspect. Then, he discovers the body of a fellow clerk, supposedly a suicide. Blame for the leak is shifted to the dead man, but Laurence is certain both of his friend's innocence and that he was murdered. But at a time when even the slightest hint of treason can lead to the gallows, how can Laurence find the true culprit without incriminating himself?

Political landscapes and ambitions
A convoluted and cleverly written story centered around actual facts and figures in the politics of London in the 18 century.

long time to tell a short story
quite frankly, couldn't have cared less if they all died. narrator seemed to be having much fun with accents, but felt disconnected from the story.

Intense but a good read
Enjoyed this book - the story telling is so vivid, such descriptive language about London in the 1700/1800's. Felt very authentic!
Good story, gritty and cold which added to its noir feeling.
Also read Blue Water by the same author - also a great story.
