The Harrow - Noah Eaton

Shortlisted for The Orwell Prize for Fiction 2025, a darkly comic novel of subterfuge, whisky glasses, and the drive of an underdog to find the truth, no matter the consequences...Welcome to the The Harrow, last survivor of London's once-notorious muckraking magazines. John Salmon, its battle-hardened editor, and his misfit journalists have fought for years to keep it alive, but extinction looms.Neither the arrival of trainee Danny Roth nor a local gangland killing looks set to change that. But as John reluctantly allows Danny to investigate the murder, they soon find themselves entangled in a story that could save The Harrow - but might cost them their lives...A brilliantly plotted crime mystery full of larger-than-life characters from the seamy underbelly of modern London.
