Sinossi

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.

    (Note: no dogs die in this series!) ~~ Marcia (pronounced Mar-see-a, not Marsha) likes to think of herself as a normal person, even though she has a rather abnormal vocation. She trains service dogs for combat veterans with PTSD. Then the former Marine owner of her first trainee is accused of murdering his wife, and Marcia gets sucked into an even more abnormal avocation–amateur sleuth. 
    Called in to dog-sit the Labrador service dog, Buddy, she’s outraged that his veteran owner is being presumed guilty until proven innocent. With Buddy’s help, she tries to uncover the real killer. Even after the hunky local sheriff politely tells her to butt out, Marcia keeps poking around. Until the killer finally pokes back.
