The House on Half Moon Street by Alex Reeve

Ahead of the publication of The House on Half Moon Street by Alex Reeve, we’ve got three sets of ten paperbacks to giveaway to reading groups alongside some reading group questions.

About the book…

Everyone has a secret… Only some lead to murder.

When the body of a young woman is wheeled into the hospital where Leo Stanhope works, his life is thrown into chaos. Maria, the woman he loves, has been murdered and it is not long before the finger of suspicion is turned on him, threatening to expose his lifelong secret.

For Leo Stanhope was born Charlotte, the daughter of a respectable reverend. Knowing he was meant to be a man – despite the evidence of his body – and unable to cope with living a lie any longer, he fled his family home at just fifteen and has been living as Leo ever since: his secret known to only a few trusted people.

Desperate to find Maria’s killer and thrown into gaol, he stands to lose not just his freedom, but ultimately his life.
