London Falling begins with what looks like a tragic suicide and unravels into something far darker. Zac Brettler, a teenager drawn into the world of a shady London businessman and a dangerous gangster, falls from a luxury apartment building beside the Thames. His grieving parents, convinced that something far more sinister took place, launch their own investigation and find themselves pulling at threads that Scotland Yard seemed content to leave alone. Keefe peels back the polished surface of one of the world's most powerful cities to expose the dirty money, corruption, and unchecked criminality hiding in plain sight. This is a heartbreaking, infuriating, and utterly compelling book about grief, justice, and what a city will do to protect its secrets.
