London Fields

An alternative cover edition for this ISBN can be found here.Writer Samson Young is staring death in the face. Void of ideas and on the verge of terminal decline, Samson’s dash to a decaying, degenerate London has brought him through the doors of the Black Cross pub and into a murder story just waiting to be narrated.At its centre is the mesmeric, doomed Nicola Six, destined to be murdered on her thirty-fifth birthday. Around her: disreputable men, one of whom might yet turn out to be her killer. All Samson has to do is to write Nicola’s story as it happens, and savour this one last gift that life has granted him.
