The search for a missing artist draws Donald Langham and Ralph Ryland into London's criminal underworld with deadly consequences. London. April, 1957. Private investigator Donald Langham is approached by retired businessman Vernon Lombard to find his missing son, Christopher. But what appears to be a simple case of a missing artist becomes far more alarming when Langham realizes there's more to Christopher's disappearance than meets the eye, and then makes a terrible discovery. Meanwhile, Langham's business partner Ralph Ryland's search for a missing greyhound forces him to confront a shameful secret from his own past, with terrifying consequences. Can Langham navigate London's criminal underworld, fascism and deception to track down a killer and save Ralph's life?

Mehso-so

A Private investigator is tasked to find a father's favourite son who is missing. His other son and daughter has no affection in his heart. Set in 1957 the side line to the story is that of Fascist sympothisers and their antics and a planned attack on a synagogue. One of the sons is found murdered and the subsequent investigation discovers that the entire male side of the family are disliked. Quite a tedious book with a lacklustre ending.

I Managed to get a copy of Murder Most Vile by Eric Brown from the Library three days before its publication date. Still reading the Fourteenth Letter by Claire Evans at the moment.
