Hugh Fraser's Harm is the perfect combination of action, mystery and intrigue. It also features some superbly constructed characters, who develop over the course of the story - which is a rarity in mystery novels.

In 1961, George Preston is in control of crime in West London, and Rina Walker is his favoured contract killer. When Rina is hired by a Soho vice king to investigate the disappearance of girls from his clubs, she discovers that they’re being supplied to a member of the English aristocracy for the gratification of his macabre tastes. Soon, Rina’s pursuit of the missing girls, and her efforts to save the innocent from slaughter, become increasingly perilous as she grapples with interwoven layers of corruption and betrayal—and tries to survive a confrontation with depravity . . .
