Description
Seven Dials - an enigmatic London district where time, place, and hidden secrets intersect. When a dramatic incident brings chaos to the area, ambitious reporter Alison Hill witnesses Brad Sayers's sensational discovery but becomes a target of dark forces determined to bury the past. Forming an uneasy alliance with Brad - a mercurial "Questor" with secrets of his own - Alison is thrust into a desperate race to solve an unbreakable puzzle that spans 300 years, from the glittering court of Charles II to the gritty backstreets of modern London.
At the heart of this enigma is Thomas "Golden" Neale, a visionary entrepreneur who transformed a notorious slum into Seven Dials, defying powerful enemies and hiding an invaluable secret that could topple empires. Alison's savvy intelligence and daring are tested to the limit as she unearths a world where science and magic coexist. Her quest will forever change how you see London's hidden history and the secrets still concealed beneath its streets.
Seven Dials is a mesmerising blend of historical intrigue and contemporary thriller that will captivate fans of Dan Brown, Kate Mosse, and Ben Aaronovitch.
