Overview

Who killed Boy Staunton?

Around this central mystery is woven a glittering, fantastical, cunningly contrived trilogy of novels. Luring the reader down labyrinthine tunnels of myth, history, and magic, “The Deptford Trilogy” provides an exhilarating antidote to a world from where “the fear and dread and splendour of wonder have been banished.”

Reviews
"If you are the kind of reader who looks for traces of the marvelous and the unexpected in narrative as well as daily life, then soon you will, like me, treasure these novels."
–Kelly Link

"The Deptford Trilogy boldly commingles the extraordinary and the everyday, at times attaining what Davies once called, in talking about melodrama, 'the compelling immediacy of a dream.'"
–Michael Dirda
