Description

The crime appeared as easily solved as it was wicked. A Grub Street printer, his family, and two apprentices brutally murdered in their sleep. A locked building. And at the scene, a raving mad poet brandishing a bloody axe. Surely the culprit had been found, and justice would be swift and severe. But to Sir John Fielding, justice was more than finding a culprit-it was finding the truth. Aided by thirteen-year-old Jeremy Proctor, Fielding decided to investigate further. And the truth behind the Grub Street massacre was more evil-and more deadly-than the dastardly crime itself.

First Sentence

In my research for materials pertinent to the murders in Grub Street, which was indeed one of Sir John Fielding's most infamous inquiries, I came upon the preceding document which I had kept near thirty years as a reminder of just how this grisly matter began.
