Story
I am afraid that I, Sherlock Holmes, must act as my own chronicler in this singular case, that of the Whitechapel murders of 1888. For the way in which the affair was dropped upon my doorstep left me with little choice as to the contrary. Not 12 months prior, the siren's call of quiet domesticity and married life had robbed me of Watson's assistance as both partner and recorder of my cases. Thus, when detective inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard required a lead - any lead - I found myself forced to pursue Jack the Ripper alone.

Story
In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honor, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape.

Story
Infused with magic, shadows and starlight, the powerful godblades were believed to be lost nearly half a millennia ago, when the Godswar ended. Now, however, one has been found by the unlikeliest of wielders: Sampson Gaard, a blind but ambitious prince with something to prove. The only question is whether he controls the blade or the blade him. With an insidious evil lurking in the shadows, the answer may very well determine the fate of all Kingfall.

Publisher's Summary
Becket: Book Three
1170. Canterbury.
Thomas of London, the rebellious Archbishop of Canterbury, has made peace with Henry II, after six long years in exile.
Henry and Thomas are both prepared to put past differences aside, but there is little trust left between the two former close friends and allies. A single ill-judged word or action could spark a conflict between the two men - and church and state.
Thomas’ return to England threatens the interests of Henry’s barons and his enemies in the church. They will stop at nothing to destroy the popular, but proud, clergyman. Back in Canterbury, Thomas is intent on taking his revenge on those who conspired against him, whatever the consequences.
News that Thomas has excommunicated royal supporters soon reaches the King. It is the last straw for Henry. He explodes in a rage, calling on four knights to rid him of his "turbulent priest". They are words that will resound down the centuries and leave Henry with a lifetime of regret.
The die is cast.
With no hope of a lasting peace between the King and Archbishop, there can be only one, bloody conclusion.
Jemahl Evans is the author of the acclaimed Sir Blandford Candy novel series. He lives in West Wales.
