The gentleman detective searches for a missing groom—and a killer—on the foggy streets of postwar London in this "phenomenal" crime novel (J. K. Rowling). One of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction's Four Queens of Crime "A satisfying sleuth-novel."— Kirkus Reviews A fog is creeping through the weary streets of London—so too are whispers that the Tiger is back in town, undetected by the law, untroubled by morals. And the rumors are true: Jack Havoc, charismatic outlaw, knife-wielding killer, and ingenious jail-breaker, is on the loose once again. As Havoc stalks the smog-cloaked alleyways of the city, it falls to Albert Campion to hunt down the fugitive and put a stop to his rampage—before it's too late… Praise for Margery Allingham   "Allingham's work is always of the first rank."— The New York Times "Margery Allingham stands out like a shining light."—Agatha Christie   "The best of mystery writers."— The New Yorker
