The stage is set for murder
It's the summer of 1929 and there's a serial killer on the streets of London.
Bodies of young women are dumped at the stage doors of London's theatres.
Noël Coward's assistant Florence Miles, known to her close friends as Bill, is dragged into the investigation when the body of her former secret lover is found outside His Majesty's Theatre.
Bill forms an unlikely alliance with the Chronicle newspaper's senior crime reporter Simon Sampson. Together they discover that the killer has friends in high places...
This is the prequel to the LAMBDA finalist A Death in Berlin. It explores the secret world of the 1920s, a time when your sexuality could make you a lawbreaker. When gay men and women were constantly on their guard, careful about how they presented themselves in a hostile society.
A Death At His Majesty's is the first of a series that brings together Bill and Simon and follows them as they embark on a series of sleuthing adventures.
