South London, 1987. A car park. A man lies dead, an axe buried in his skull. His name is Morgan Daniels — private detective, occasional drunk, and now, the spark that will ignite a national reckoning. His murder sets off a chain reaction that pulls in bent coppers, tabloid hacks, and, before long, the highest ranks of the British establishment. One killing. One cover-up. Corruption everywhere you look.

Inspired by true events, Stench is a startling crime debut from the new voice of Brit noir.

‘Stench is a literary Molotov cocktail – blistering, paranoid, and all too plausible.’ Londonopia

“The soul of a poet living in the body of a crime writer.” Katie Isbester, Claret Press

“A vivid, hardcore recreation of murder, conspiracy and corruption… Read it and be thrilled by the darkness that surrounds us.” Jon Hotten
