Synopsis

A thrilling blend of metaphysical mystery and anarchic intrigue. Gabriel Syme, a poet-turned-detective, is recruited to infiltrate an anarchist council where each member is named for a day of the week. As Syme navigates deception and layers of complexity, Chesterton crafts a tale of philosophical depth, exploring chaos, identity, and the thin line between order and anarchy.

About G. K. Chesterton

G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was one of the most influential English writers of the twentieth century. His prolific and diverse output included journalism, philosophy, poetry, biography,Christian apologetics, fantasy, and detective fiction. Chesterton is well known for his reasoned apologetics, and even those who disagree with him have recognized the universal appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton routinely referred to himself as an "orthodox" Christian and came to identify such a position with Catholicism more and more, eventually converting to Roman Catholicism. George Bernard Shaw, Chesterton's "friendly enemy" according to Time magazine, said of him, "He was a man of colossal genius."
