Wild Chamber

More about the book

Near London Bridge Station, members of the Met's Peculiar Crimes Unit race to catch a killer. In the dark and the rain, they unwittingly cause a bizarre accident - one that will have repercussions for them all... One year later, a smartly dressed woman is found strangled in a locked private London garden. The dog she was walking has disappeared, her husband is missing, and a nanny has vanished too - so far, so typical a case for Bryant and May. As Bryant delves into the arcane history of London's extraordinary parks and gardens - its "wild chambers" - May and the rest of the team become mired in a national scandal. It seems likely that the killer is preparing to strike again, and if the city's open spaces aren't safe, then surely they must be closed...
