Each story, from 'A Gentleman's Gentleman' to 'The Devil To Pay', unfolds with remarkable attention to detail, engaging readers with thrilling plots and a variegated tapestry of characters that come alive against the backdrop of the Thames. Max Pemberton, esteemed as a medical doctor and journalist in his time, transposes his insights of human nature and society into the gripping pages of 'The Tales of the Thames'.
