Hush, hush, hush
Here comes the Bogeyman . . .
London during the long, dark days of the Blitz: a city outwardly in ruins, weakened by exhaustion and rationing. But behind the blackout, the old way of life continues: in the music halls, pubs, and cafes, soldiers mix with petty crooks, stage magicians with lonely wives, scandal-hungry reporters with good-time girls and DCI Edward Greenaway keeps a careful eye on everyone.
But out on the streets, something nastier is stirring: London s prostitutes are being murdered, their bodies left mutilated to taunt the police. And in the shadows Greenaway s old adversaries in organized crime are active again, lured by rich pickings on the black market. As he follows a bloody trail through backstreets and boudoirs, Greenaway must use all his skill and everything he knows about the city s underworld to stop the slaughter.
Based on real events, Without the Moon is an atmospheric and evocative historical crime novel demonstrating Unsworth s masterful grasp of the genre.

Cathi Unsworth

Cathi Unsworth began her career on the legendary music weekly Sounds at the age of nineteen, where she topped a poll to be named the Sounds journalist readers would most like to go for a drink with. Her popularity was down to her identification with gothic music.

Cathi's previous book, Defying Gravity, the life and times of punk icon Jordan, was described by Julie Burchill as 'the only book about punk you'll ever need' and was chosen as 'Book of the Year' by Rough Trade, Uncut and the Daily Telegraph in 2019.

She has also written six pop-culture-laced noir novels and her short-form work has appeared in The Guardian, the Financial Times, Bizarre, Melody Maker, Mojo and Uncut. She has appeared on TV and radio, given talks, organised walks and hosted events too numerous to mention.
