Publisher's Synopsis
In its starred review, Publisher's Weekly says: "Once again Halter crafts a completely logical and plausible explanation for the fantastic." It is 1902 and in London's infamously haunted East End there are rumours of a strange passageway which can swallow up anyone who ventures there at night and make them disappear. Kraken Street can only vanish and reappear, it can also conjure up visions of murders past and predict future ones. Who better to address this astonishing state of affairs than Owen Burns, a dandy aesthete who appreciates murder as a fine art and lends his services to Scotland Yard?
