I'm so pleased to share more details with you about book one in my new REBELLION series, which is now out on kindle. (Paperback to follow shortly.)
If you know anyone who enjoys historical fiction, please could you help me out and share the details with them?
To have Michael Arnold review it is both very exciting and humbling. His series of 'Stryker' books were Civil War novels that I read back in the days when writing my own was still a distant dream.
We might be locked down, but if you fancy a trip back to 1645, then 'The King's Spy' can take you there...
🗣"Captures the terror and tension of the Civil War. An assured start to a new, gripping series." Michael Arnold
Leicestershire.
14th June 1645.
The Battle of Naseby is set to decide the outcome of the civil war in England.
The armies of King Charles I face those of Parliament and its untested New Model Army. Yet amidst the carnage, an intensely personal battle takes place between two men.
Captain Maxwell Walker is a royalist cavalry officer, widower and father. Loyal and brave, but haunted by his grief, Maxwell thirsts for revenge. His life has never been the same since his encounter with the parliamentarian Gervase Harper, a man whose ruthless streak sees him prosecute the war with vigour. Harper cuts down anyone who gets in his way. Maxwell’s wife was no exception.
The outcome of Naseby causes Maxwell to be tasked with a royal rescue mission. The King’s most personal possession must be retrieved. His cypher would allow Parliament to decode captured royal correspondence and that would deal a major blow in the propaganda war.
The soldier must play the spy.
His actions, however, earn him the enmity of both sides.
Facing a murder charge, as well as a great siege, Maxwell makes a discovery that might just save himself and the King’s remaining cavalry.
However, all of this rests upon his next encounter with Gervase Harper.
🗣"A rollicking good adventure set against the backdrop of the civil war." Jemahl Evans, author of The Last Roundhead
