"It's like Steed and Mrs Peel meets Murder She Wrote!"

A dead husband. A secretive stranger. And a nosy widow with a knack for murder.

When Laura Carlyle left behind high society for committee meetings and quiet cups of tea, she never imagined her next guest would bring gossip, grief — and a murder.

Luckily (or not), help arrives in the form of Sebastian Silver — silver-haired, sharp-suited, and possibly a conman. He knows things about Harry Farrell that no one else does. The question is: can he be trusted?

From cosy drawing rooms to candlelit crypts, Laura’s genteel corner of Kensington hides more than just scandal — it hides a mysterious cabal of killers. And if Laura keeps poking around, she might be the next victim…

The first book in a new series of Carlyle & Silver cozy mysteries by#1 New York Times bestselling writer Tony Lee writing as Jack Gatland, Silver - And The Sunday Cypher is perfect for fans of Richard Osman, SJ Bennett, Agatha Christie and Agatha Raisin — a sharp, charming mystery with secrets, spies, and suspicious tea trays.

When the body of a City banker is discovered with a soaking wet playing card pinned to his chest and a water pistol nearby, DCI Declan Walsh is thrust into a deadly game twenty years in the making.

Ellie Reckless has carved out her place as London's criminal arbitrator, keeping the peace between warring factions through favours and brutal negotiation. But when slick "business consultants" start circling every major crime family like sharks, offering buyouts instead of bullets, Ellie faces her deadliest challenge yet.

These aren't your typical northern thugs – the McCanns have weaponised corporate law itself. With a ruthlessly brilliant solicitor as their architect, they're making London's crime bosses an offer that sounds too good to refuse: legitimacy, protection, and power without the blood.

But every deal comes with a price.
