Creator of the acclaimed graphic novel series Proof, Alex Grecian has also drawn wide praise for The Yard, his engrossing debut novel set in Victorian England. Walter Day's first case for the London Murder Squad sets him on a hunt for the depraved madman who killed one of their own detectives. Now, Walter's best chance for success lies with Dr. Bernard Kingsley, the Yard's brilliant forensic pathologist. "Lusciously rich with detail, atmosphere, and history The Yard will keep you riveted from page one." –Jeffery Deaver, best-selling author
