  Step into the madcap medieval world of A Comic History of England, Book IV, where Gilbert Abbott à Beckett turns the tumultuous era of Henry IV to Richard III into a sidesplitting spectacle! From bumbling nobles to scheming kings, this uproarious volume skewers the Wars of the Roses, royal blunders, and the rise of the Tudors. It also explores Joan of Arc, and the truly astonishing Jacqueline of Hainault, a woman far more impressive than any English monarch. 
  Whether it’s Henry VI’s hapless reign, Edward IV’s dramatic escapades, or Richard III’s infamous legacy, à Beckett proves that history’s darkest dramas are also its funniest.  
  Perfect for fans of satire, history lovers with a sense of humor, or anyone who enjoys seeing pompous monarchs taken down a peg, this standalone volume delivers laughter alongside the Lancasters and Yorks, as they fight over the the princes in the tower and  theendless succession of pretenders to the throne, while also pretending to the throne of France once England was in hand. 
  After all, why should history be serious when it’s this absurd?

Time heals all wounds, ... but old deeds still haunt, ... even for the innocent!After helping the captain solve his long overdue case, Doreen’s reputation is well and truly cemented in Kelowna. That’s proven out when a young woman is murdered in her own apartment, and the police start looking at the boyfriend. With the town on edge, this young man seeks out Doreen’s help to prove his innocence.Corporal Mack Moreau is back to light duty work—mostly keeping an eye on Doreen, if the captain has any say in it. It’s hardly a hardship, as he loves being around her, when she’s not dipping her toes in his active cases. And yet somehow she manages to find old cases that dovetail with his ongoing ones, giving her an exaggerated opinion of where her boundaries are.What seems simple on the surface goes back into history to a case that was done and dusted, with the killer now out free, looking for revenge. But, of course, it’s not that simple or that easy; and, by the time Doreen and her animal crew are done, the world has shifted for more than just one person in this case.
