The Keys to the Street

Set in and around London's Regents Park, where the city's wealthiest, poorest, kindest, and most vicious citizens all cross paths, this newest novel by the Edgar and Gold Dagger-winning author of Crocodile Bird tells of the deadly thanks a young woman risks receiving in return for an act of selfless generosity.

First sentence: Iron spikes surmount each of the gates into the park, twenty-seven of them on some, eighteen or eleven on others.
