Description

AN EVOCATIVE HISTORICAL MYSTERY SERIES SET IN THE GASLIT STREETS OF FOGGY GEORGIAN LONDON.

John Rawlings is a young apothecary in 18th-century London. Found at the scene of a murder, he is marched to Bow Street to face Sir John Fielding. The blind magistrate, known as 'The Blind Beak', recognises Rawlings' unease and judges him innocent. He also sees an eye for detail. Rawlings is cleared, and quietly recruited for detective work.

From Drury Lane stages and smugglers' taverns to Romney Marsh and St James's Palace, Rawlings is pulled into cases of personal vendettas, political intrigue and concealed identities.

Follow their escapades in *THE COMPLETE* heart-pounding historical mystery series full of twists and turns. Perfect for fans of C.S. Harris, Andrew Taylor, Ian Morson, S. J. Parris, Paul Doherty and David Penny.
