It's a gripping and well written book that mixes historical facts with fiction, a story of friendship and betrayal set in post war London.
I didn't know what to expect but I found this novel gripping and I loved the descriptions of post-war London.
I learned something new as I'm not the biggest expert in historical serial killers and found the depiction of Christie fascinating even if I would have liked some more parts about him.
The characters aren't likeable but they're well written and they live in hard times when there were still plenty of prejudice against homosexuality (it was a crime) and abortion was performed illegally in a very dangerous way.
It's a book set in a world of seedy bars, desperation, the perfect scene where a predator can find his victims.
I would have preferred something more about Christie and some less drama but it's a good book.
I recommend it and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
