    “Book Descriptions: ★★★★★ A dark hymn to pre-Victorian London in all its grotty glory.” Nick Perry, author of The Loop

    Charles Dickens is a newly famous author and a man who has only just married. He thinks that he is about to become a father.

    Why, then, does he go wandering London after dark and why, under the influence of a famous clown, does he begin an affair with Sarah, a barmaid who works in a North London pub?

    While his own descriptions of sex barely exist, he becomes immersed in an affair so all-consuming that his life begins to fall apart. He takes to drink, he develops a liking for rough company, he even steals a necklace. Where will it end?

    During a Christmas entertainment, Dickens, Sarah and his wife edge towards a confrontation that has the potential to ruin him for ever.”
