Kitty Peck and the Parliament of Shadows by Kate Griffin

7 November 2019 By Editor

When Kitty Peck took over Paradise – her grandmother’s East End criminal empire – she thought she would be able to run it her own way.

Buy Kitty Peck and the Parliament of Shadows by Kate Griffin

What Kitty didn’t know was that her grandmother had also left her violently entwined with the Barons of London. This coterie of fiends will stop at nothing to gain power, and they’ve already robbed Kitty of so much that she held dear.

Kitty is determined to do away with the dark underbelly of Paradise and to transform her music halls into the jewels of Limehouse.

But as she begins her final assault on the Barons, a new threat appears in the form of an eerily charismatic preacher on a crusade against ‘wickedness and vice’.

Can Kitty save Paradise from destruction, without losing any more of the people she loves?

Kitty Peck and the Parliament of Shadows by Kate Griffin is the fourth in the Kitty Peck series of Victorian mysteries and is published on 7 November, 2019.

Kate has written reviews of TV dramas for Historia, including Year of the Rabbit and Les Miserables.

Read our interview with Kate (2017).
