For nine months, investigative journalist Daniel Mercer has had nothing to chase but unanswered job applications.
Then, on the way to the most important interview of his life, his taxi almost hits a man running from a hotel in Half Moon Street. Daniel knows him. It is Keith Harland — his former colleague, the man who helped him investigate a powerful property developer.
There is only one problem. Keith has been dead for eleven months. The man looks straight at Daniel, calls him by name and gives him a warning: “Don’t go to the interview.”
Daniel goes anyway.
Inside Harrington Vale, the interview becomes something far more disturbing. The questions know things they should not know. His telephone may be compromised. Someone is watching his Brighton flat. And a mysterious reference — HV-4175 — keeps appearing in places it should not exist.
The deeper Daniel digs, the more impossible the truth becomes. Because somebody has discovered how to make people disappear without forging the evidence. The records are genuine. The companies are real. The professionals exist. Even the bodies are real. Only the conclusion is false.
And when someone Daniel loves is taken, the investigation becomes a race against a hidden network that does not need to invent reality. It only needs to rearrange it.
The Man in Half Moon Street is a tense psychological thriller about truth, identity and one terrifying question: If every official record says a man is dead, how do you prove he is still alive?
