His beat is the underworld of Victorian London - a seething maze of alleys and bordellos, peopled with sneak thieves, thugs, murderers and their doxies. From far-off Bengal there comes to Verity a tantalising hint of major crime in the making. Despite his superiors' instructions, Verity determines to run the plotters down. And there begins a battle between Verity's sturdy resolve and the devilish cunning of his unseen adversary: Lieutenant Verney Dacre, retired officer of cavalry, woman-beater and gentleman cracksman. The stakes are Verity's career - indeed his freedom - and half a ton of bullion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Murder Room","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465140064407,"sku":"9781471904196","price":390.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781471904196.webp?v=1769307377","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sergeant-verity-and-the-cracksman-9781471904196","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
