Beschreibung

Award-winning historical fiction. Like Game of Thrones with real history. 1151: The Holy Land, where one book is worth more than a man's life.‘A stunning masterpiece of tangled alliances, conflicting loyalties and tested love.’ Kristin Gleeson, In Praise of the Bees   Troubadour Estela will do whatever it takes to rescue the knight she loves but will her brave actions seal his fate? She embarks on a perilous journey to the Holy Land in this enthralling historical epic.     Imprisoned in Damascus, Dragonetz suffers the mind games inflicted by his anonymous enemies, as he is forced to relive the traumatic events of the Second  Crusade. His military prowess is as valuable and dangerous to the balance of power as the priceless Torah he has to deliver to Jerusalem, and the key players want Dragonetz riding with them - or dead.   Once more, 'the master of historical intrigue' whirls the reader off into medieval mayhem. Jean Gill's details of crusading strategy and riding a camel are as convincing as the pangs of medieval childbirth. She brought medieval France to life in Song at Dawn; now she adds 12th century Damascus and Jerusalem with equal aplomb.Global Ebooks Award for Best Historical FictionHistorical Novel Society Editor's ChoiceFinalist in the Wishing Shelf Awards, the Kindle Book Awards and the Chaucer AwardsFour Discovered Diamond Awards‘Captures the essence of the epoch.’ J.G.

    An ex-magician returns to Vegas to confront his sordid past in one final, decadent showdown—but he may not make it out of Sin City alive . . .    When a mysterious box containing a greeting card, a sheet of textbook paper, three human teeth, and an adult index finger severed just above the knuckle arrives unannounced on Rusty “The Raven” Diamond’s doorstep, he realizes he can no longer hide on the beaches of Maryland. Someone wants Rusty to pay for what he did years before, and if Rusty is going to survive, he’ll need to take the fight to Vegas.   Rusty was once the hottest act on the strip, an illusionist who commanded sellout crowds for his death-defying act. But with bigger risks come bigger enemies, and it seems Rusty has made one of the most sizable enemies the Nevada desert has to offer. A mobster-turned-politician with every resource available aims not only to close the curtain on Rusty, but to make sure he pays dearly beforehand.   Rusty’s final reckoning with his past will draw him into a trap that, even at his most Houdini-esque, he may not be able to escape, in this gripping crime thriller by the author of The Platinum Loop, praised by Publishers Weekly as “pulp fun at its best.”
