The fourteenth novel in Christopher Fowler's gloriously inventive, imaginative series featuring detectives Arthur Bryant and John May and the Peculiar Crimes Unit is a treat for readers as murder and scandal lead the team to delve into the history of London's wild spaces, it's parks and gardens . . .
Christopher Fowler is the multiple award-winning author of almost fifty novels and short story collections, including the Bryant & May mysteries. His other novels include Roofworld, Spanky, The Sand Men and Hot Water. He has also written two acclaimed memoirs, Paperboy (winner of the Green Carnation Prize) and Film Freak, plus The Book of Forgotten Authors.

Probably the most popular detective duo since the passing of
Reginald Hill's Dalziel and Pascoe. * SHOTS magazine *
I'll make a prediction now - Wild Chamber will be in my top
five books for 2017. Bryant and May continue to be at the top of
their game, and in some ways the novels are improving with age . .
. there's no author quite like Christopher Fowler, and there are no
characters quite like Arthur Bryant and John May. There are a
multitude of facets to Wild Chamber which make it stand out
. . . Fowler is London born and bred, and his love for the city and
all its eccentricities clearly comes through in the narrative. . *

A joy to read. It's intelligent crime fiction that's accessible to
everyone. * CRIMEPIECES *
Delightfully entertaining . . . I for one, think this is incredibly
clever. Fowler richly deserves his CWA Library Award. * THE BOOKBAG

These books are clever, inventive and wonderfully original - and we
simply can't get enough of them. Prepare to be enchanted. * DEAD
GOOD BOOKS *
