The Dark Hours

An atmospheric noir thriller from the shadows of 1930s London.

In a city gripped by secrets, former war hero turned disillusioned private eye Nick Valentine is trying to drown his demons in whisky and shadows. But when a beautiful nightclub singer turns up dead with compromising photographs in her possession, Nick is dragged into a world of espionage, betrayal and murder.

As Europe edges towards war, Nick races to uncover the truth behind a series of stolen military documents, navigating the murky underworld of Soho, the corruption of Whitehall, and the ghosts of his own violent past. Hunted by enemy agents and double-crossed at every turn, the clock is ticking—and Nick must decide just how far he’s willing to go for justice.
Because in the darkest hours, even heroes can lose their way.
