Living in a cozy, small town, tucked away in the south of England, unremarkable average guy Alfie Bowman has been heard to describe himself as a refugee from a failed life. In his own words he’s ordinary looking, starting to lose his hair, a little bit shorter than average, a little bit heavier than he should be, and a lot less fit than he really ought to be. Most definitely an unlikely hero! At the ripe old age of 50, he’s escaped an unhappy marriage and just wants to re-start his life, relax and have some fun, and maybe do some writing - if only he could find something to write about! So when he stops in the pub for a couple of pints on the way home one night, the last thing he expects to have to do is save a stunning young woman half his age from a fracas with an enormous thug with huge fists! But that’s exactly what he does do, because, as far as Alfie’s concerned, there are some things you can’t just stand by and ignore. Waking up in hospital later that night he wonders if maybe getting involved hadn’t been the best decision he’d ever made after all! But he soon learns that the beating he’d been given had nothing to do with events in the pub... So who beat him up, and why? Who is the stunning young woman and what’s she doing in town?

Murder! A gruesome slaughter shocks The Wall. The whole city is frightened. No one feels safe anymore. Inspector Whitfield stated to this reporter, that "the situation is under control. There is no need for panic." Asked if he already got a lead, a possible suspect, he turns away. Who did this horrible deed? Suspicions and speculations make the round, none of which are to be repeated here as not to kindle false accusations... ---------------------------------- Follow two pairs of investigators into the fictional, distorted picture of a Victorian Age London. Are they going to untangle this murder-mystery amidst deep set superstitions, fears, and prejudices? Or are they getting lost in the maze of the city, between poverty and luxury?
