Blurb

Winner of ‘Arthur Ellis’: Best Crime Novel, Canadian Crime Writers 2015.

London, May 1665.

On a dark road outside London, a simple robbery goes horribly wrong – when the gentlemanly highwayman, William Coke, discovers that his intended victims have been brutally slaughtered.

Suspected of the murders, Coke is forced into an uneasy alliance with the man who pursues him – the relentless thief-taker, Pitman. Together they seek the killer – and uncover a conspiracy that reaches from the glittering, debauched court of King Charles to the worst slum in the city, St Giles in the Fields.

But there’s another murderer moving through the slums, the taverns and palaces, slipping under the doorways of the rich.

A mass murderer… PLAGUE

"PLAGUE is one of those books where you turn the last page and wish there were more. The very best of history, mystery, romance and sheer fun." - Diana Gabaldon

A runaway carriage of a book.” Conn Iggulden, author of War of the Roses "PLAGUE is one of those books where you turn the last page and wish there were more. The very best of history, mystery, romance and sheer fun." Diana Gabaldon And for the Jack Absolute Series: “C.C.
