3 Detective Stories – Mysteries...

Arthur Conan Doyle

There is something about the number 3.  
The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
From their pens to your your ears.

Duke's Shadow The: The Secret...

Quentin Drummond Anderson

"The Duke's Shadow: The Secret Chronicle of Guy de Valois" by Quentin Drummond Anderson 
In his haunting and masterfully crafted historical novel "The Duke's Shadow," Quentin Drummond Anderson weaves a dark tapestry of medieval espionage that challenges our conventional understanding of the Norman Conquest. Through the chilling protagonist Guy de Valois, Anderson presents a shadow history that explores the psychological depths of power, loyalty, and the complete absence of humanity in the pursuit of political dominance. 
The novel's greatest triumph lies in its protagonist, though 'protagonist' feels almost inappropriate for a character so devoid of traditional heroic qualities. Guy de Valois emerges as one of the most compelling antiheroes in recent historical fiction. From his formative years as a young page to his transformation into William the Conqueror's ruthless spymaster, de Valois embodies the darker aspects of medieval power politics. Anderson's portrayal is unflinching - there are no attempts to soften de Valois or make him more palatable to modern sensibilities. Instead, we are presented with a character whose complete lack of humanity becomes his defining characteristic, particularly after his brutal torture at Valognes. 
The novel's structure, divided into chapters that chronicle de Valois's evolution from calculated manipulator to something altogether more terrifying, allows Anderson to explore the machinery of medieval power from multiple angles. The early chapters, focusing on de Valois's education in the art of manipulation, establish the groundwork for what becomes an increasingly dark narrative. The pivotal Valognes sequence, where de Valois endures torture to protect William, serves as a psychological turning point, after which the character's remaining humanity is stripped away entirely. 
The novel is also available on Amazon Kindle.
