"The Tiger in the Smoke is a phenomenal novel." -J. K. Rowling A fog is creeping through the weary streets of London-so too are whispers that the Tiger is back in town, undetected by the law, untroubled by morals. And the rumors are true: Jack Havoc, charismatic outlaw, knife-wielding killer, and ingenious jail-breaker, is on the loose once again. As Havoc stalks the smog-cloaked alleyways of the city, it falls to Albert Campion to hunt down the fugitive and put a stop to his rampage-before it's too late . . . "Allingham's work is always of the first rank." -The New York Times.
