Synopsis of book»

What could make a successful, happily married man take a gun and shoot himself?

What could make a young artist on the brink of fame throw himself from a window to his death?

These are the questions that are faced by Chief Inspector Lamb and his sergeant, Cogan. Neither victim left a note behind to explain what drove them to take their own lives, and it appears that nothing untoward had occurred in the weeks preceding their deaths. But something must have led them to take such drastic action, and Lamb intends to find out what it was.

Beautifully written and highly evocative of the bustling streets of London and Vienna in the early twentieth century, Last Nocturne is an intriguingly complex mystery of passion, secrets and lies.
