There are echoes of Agatha Christie in the complex plot set in 1934, but Taylor's portrait of desperate lives is infused with a sharp sense of class and politics as British society fractures under the threat of a world war |

| Other text | Taylor is the modern master of a very Dickensian underworld… A sense of brooding evil pervades the complex plot, handled with great assurance |
