'This real-life murder mystery had as many twists and turns as an Agatha Christie whodunit'Daily Mail on The Dublin Railway Murders A shocking murder. A suspect with an alibi. A courtroom trial that gripped a nation.
On a winter night by the London docks, shipyard magnate Isaac Blight is found shot dead in his own armchair. Within hours, rumours spread and all fingers point to his business partner, Richard Patch. But Patch has an alibi. He has no obvious motive. And the crime scene is anything but clear.
What unfolds next is the trial everyone wants to witness. Cabinet ministers angle for seats, British royals flock to the gallery, and a future king of France watches from the wings as the case takes twist after twist.
Enter three men who will change the face of British justice: brilliant young surgeon Astley Cooper, relentless magistrate Aaron Graham, and courtroom superstar William Garrow. Together, they help forge the foundations of modern detective work.
Blood on the Thames races through the backstreets and courtrooms of Georgian London, blending vivid history with the taut suspense of a classic crime novel. A true story of greed, intrigue and a death that would echo far beyond the docks.
Praise for Thomas Morris:
'A true-crime masterclass: meticulous, vivid and as compelling as any thriller' Philip Gray ' The research that has gone into this book is simply staggering' Daily Telegraph
