Description
November 1940. Darkness descends, and another anxious night begins for those tasked with guarding the industrial heartland of London from enemy attack. As a policeman patrols the Royal Albert Dock, something catches his eye—a man is sprawled awkwardly across a nearby barge, a dagger lodged in his back.
The Dockland Murder follows Detective Inspector John Jago of West Ham CID, who discovers that the victim was a dock worker by day and a Home Guard volunteer by night. There are things even his wife doesn't know about his past. As the investigation unfolds, Jago uncovers a widening circle of secrets ranging across family tensions, the last war, and a far-flung corner of the British Empire.
