Reviews
"Outstanding. If Charles Dickens isn't somewhere clapping his hands for this, Wilkie Collins surely is." Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review, "A winner, filled with Victorian arcane and eccentric characters and more humor than one expects from such a work." - The Rap Sheet, "Lusciously rich with detail, atmosphere, and history, and yet as fast paced as a locomotive, The Yard will keep you riveted from page one. It's truly a one- or two-sitting read." -Jeffery Deaver, author of Carte Blanche and The Bone Collector, "This excellent murder mystery debut introduces a fascinating cast of characters. Grecian displays a flair for language as well as creating vivid (and occasionally gruesome) depictions of places and events." - Library Journal, "Outstanding. If Charles Dickens isn't somewhere clapping his hands for this, Wilkie Collins surely is." - Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review, "Alex Grecian's The Yard is a brilliantly crafted debut novel with unforgettable characters. An utterly gripping tale perfectly evokes Victorian London and brings you right back to the depraved and traumatic days of Jack the Ripper. And I mean that in the best possible way." --Lisa Lutz, author of The Spellman Files, "Grecian's debut is the promising start of a new series and should be one of the most acclaimed and popular mysteries of the year. Caleb Carr's The Alienist> is the obvious comparison, thanks to The Yard 's attention to detail and mix of historical facts and vivid fictional creations." - Huffington Post, "Grecian powerfully evokes both the physical, smog-ridden atmosphere of London in 1889 and its emotional analogs of anxiety and depression. His infusion of actual history adds to this thriller's credibility and punch. A deeply satisfying reconstruction of post-Ripper London."

Synopsis
Victorian London is a cesspool of crime, and Scotland Yard has only twelve detectives--known as "The Murder Squad"--to investigate countless murders every month. Created after the Metropolitan Police's spectacular failure to capture Jack the Ripper, The Murder Squad suffers rampant public contempt. They have failed their citizens. But no one can anticipate the brutal murder of one of their own . . . one of the twelve . . . When Walter Day, the squad's newest hire, is assigned the case of the murdered detective, he finds a strange ally in the Yard's first forensic pathologist, Dr. Bernard Kingsley. Together they track the killer, who clearly is not finished with The Murder Squad . . . but why? Filled with fascinating period detail, and real historical figures, this spectacular debut in a new series showcases the depravity of late Victorian London, the advent of criminology, and introduces a stunning new cast of characters sure to appeal to fans of The Sherlockian and The Alienist.
