    Is LA around?

    What was that book I read a few years ago, featuring a chap who went to stay with his friend in a house in a cathedral close? There was fog, possibly a ghosty bit, feasibly a murder. It was either set in Victorian days, or it might have been contemporary.

    ty b. Did you read The Quincunx? That was jolly good, if a little confusing. He done another won allegedly. I may give that a go.

    No. I looked it up on Audible and no dice. That means I'll actually have to read it like some sort of animal.

    It's not even on Kindle. And it's a big, fat fúcker of a thing to hold.
