Three Days' Terror

London on Edge: A City Gripped by Fear

"Three Days' Terror" by John Creasey plunges readers into the heart of a capital held captive by chaos. Over seventy-two relentless hours, London becomes a battleground between law and disorder as an audacious criminal enterprise launches a series of high-stakes attacks. The city’s pulse quickens with every chapter, as the authorities struggle to regain control, and ordinary citizens find their lives upended by forces beyond their comprehension. Through expert pacing and a masterful sense of suspense, Creasey paints a portrait of a metropolis under siege—a setting where even the familiar becomes threatening, and every moment brings new danger.

The Relentless Pursuit of Justice

At the center of this gripping narrative is Superintendent Roger West, Creasey’s renowned creation, whose unyielding determination and sharp instincts are all that stand between order and anarchy. As events spiral and panic threatens to engulf the city, West navigates a labyrinth of false leads, shadowy figures, and mounting political pressure. The novel’s tight timeline intensifies every action, making the reader feel the race against the clock with visceral clarity. With lives hanging in the balance and no margin for error, West must trust his experience and courage to outwit adversaries whose motives are as complex as their crimes.
