'As mesmerising and charismatic as Byron himself can ever have been ... a magnificent gothic tale of scandal, secrets and murder' Janice Hallett
'Evokes all the grimy charisma of eighteenth-century Venice ... a mystery as sinuous as the city's alleys and canals. I was enthralled' Elizabeth Fremantle
'A dark treat ... splendidly gothic and impressively researched' Andrew Taylor
'Essie Fox breathes new life into the "mad, bad and dangerous to know" Lord Byron as the notorious poet turns detective ... Rich with decadent imagery and dark, gothic atmosphere, Dangerous intricately blends historical fact and fiction' Culturefly
-------
Fiction can be fatal...
Living in exile in Venice, the disgraced Lord Byron revels in the freedoms of the city.
SCANDAL
But when he is associated with the deaths of local women, found with wounds to their throats, and then a novel called The Vampyre is published under his name, rumours begin to spread that Byron may be the murderer...
MURDER
As events escalate and tensions rise - and his own life is endangered, as well as those he holds most dear - Byron is forced to play detective, to discover who is really behind these heinous crimes. Meanwhile, the scandals of his own infamous past come back to haunt him...
MYSTERY
Rich in gothic atmosphere and drawing on real events and characters from Byron's life, Dangerous is a riveting, dazzling historical thriller, as decadent, dark and seductive as the poet himself...
