A Nightmare

Set in Edwardian-era London, Gabriel Syme is recruited at Scotland Yard to a secret anti-anarchist police corps. He meets Lucian Gregory, an anarchist poet, at a party where they debate the meaning of poetry. Their chance encounter leads to an exciting story of deception, double-crossing, subterfuge, and secret identities. An enduring story, many have noted the book’s influence on surrealism and spy thrillers.
