Arrowood
Summary
The year is 1895. London is scared. A killer haunts the city's streets. The poor are hungry. Crime bosses are taking control. The police force is stretched to the breaking point. The rich turn to Sherlock Holmes, but the celebrated private detective rarely visits the densely populated streets of South London, where the crimes are sleazier and the people are poorer. In the dark corner of Southwark, victims turn to a man who despises Holmes, his wealthy clientele, and his showy forensic approach to crime: Arrowood - self-taught psychologist, occasional drunkard, and private investigator. When a man mysteriously disappears and Arrowood's best lead is viciously stabbed before his eyes, he and his sidekick, Barnett, face their toughest quest yet: to capture the head of the most notorious gang in London. In the best-selling tradition of Anthony Horowitz and Andrew Taylor, this gloriously dark crime debut will haunt listeners long after it is over.

The Murder Pit
Summary
Where evil lies buried. It's 1896: Sherlock Holmes has once again hit the headlines, solving mysteries for the cream of aristocracy. But among the workhouses and pudding shops of South London, Private Detective William Arrowood is presented with far grittier, more violent, and considerably less well-paid cases. Arrowood has no doubt who is the better detective, and when Mr. and Mrs. Barclay engage him to find their estranged daughter, Birdie, he’s sure it won’t be long before he and his assistant, Barnett, have tracked her down. But this seemingly simple missing-person case soon turns into a murder investigation. Far from the comfort of Baker Street, Arrowood’s London is a city of unrelenting cruelty, where evil is waiting to be uncovered....

In den Gassen von London
Summary
Privatdetektiv William Arrowood ist ein Mann vieler Talente - und einiger Laster. Die Tagelöhner und Straßenmädchen im armen South London können sich keinen besseren Detektiv leisten und kommen daher mit allen Anliegen zu ihm. Voller Verachtung und Neid blickt er über die Themse auf seinen bekannten Kollegen Sherlock Holmes und dessen betuchte Klientel. Auch Arrowoods neuester Fall scheint nicht geeignet zu sein, ihn berühmt zu machen: Eine junge Französin bittet darum, ihren verschwundenen Bruder aufzuspüren. Doch hinter dem simplen Auftrag verbergen sich weit mehr Geheimnisse und Leichen, als Arrowood für möglich hielt. Und so führen ihn seine Ermittlungen von den Tiefen der Londoner Unterwelt bis in höchste Regierungskreise...

Arrowood (Spanish Edition)
Summary
1895: Londres está asustado. Un asesino está al acecho en las calles de la ciudad. Los pobres estan hambrientos; los jefes del crimen están tomando el control; la fuerza policial está a punto de colapsar. Mientras los ricos buscan a Sherlock Holmes, el famoso detective privado raramente visita las calles sobrepobladas del Sur de Londres, donde los crímenes son peores y la gente es más pobre. En un oscuro rincón de Southwark, las víctimas recurren a un hombre que desprecia a Holmes, a su clientela adinerada y a su alardeante enfoque forense hacia el crimen: Arrowood, psicólogo autodidacta, borracho ocasional, e investigador privado. Cuando un hombre desaparece misteriosamente y la pista clave de Arrowood es brutalmente apuñalada ante sus ojos, él y su compañero Barnett enfrentan su investigación más difícil hasta ahora: capturar al jefe de la pandilla más peligrosa de Londres.... En la tradición best-seller de Anthony Horowitz y Andrew Taylor, este crimen gloriosamente oscuro perseguirá a los oyentes mucho tiempo después de haber escuchar la última palabra. Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
