Description
London 1664. Harry Lytle has just discovered he has a young cousin, Anne Giles. But he's had the pleasure of meeting her for the first time as a corpse. Harry sets out to track down Anne's killer, but he must follow a trail of blood, conspiracy and corruption that takes him to the dark and murky corners of Restoration London.
Reviews
'With all the glory and dissolution of Restoration London as its backdrop, this novel is a fine rollicking romp that serves its humour pitch black and its terror in Technicolor' Historical Novels Review 'You can pretty much smell the stinking air as Lytle and Dowling squelch their way through the investigation... From an assured and 'cut above' writer, The Sweet Smell of Decay comes very highly recommended' Cheltenham Standard
