  It is winter in the Cotswolds and a suspicious death has occurred. Psychic medium ‘Madame Zelda’ is found dead on Christmas morning, an open box of chocolates by her side. DCI Hayley Pascal and her new oppo, DS Artie Frobisher, have little to occupy themselves over the dead time that is Christmas at Oxford Police Station, until the chocolates are found to contain a poisonous substance. Cold cases can wait. They now have a new case to solve: one of MURDER.  
  There are no shortage of suspects: the victim’s feckless husband Charlie, her simple-minded son Luke and Grant Vaughan, the man she has cut out of his mother’s will. Added to these complications, Hayley Pascal is missing her daughter, who lives with her ex-husband in Paris and who has promised to visit her at New Year, but doesn’t. Here is a straightforward murder mystery in the tradition of Agatha Christie, but it is also a story of ordinary people driven to drastic measures through loneliness, misery and the need for revenge.

  'A new Bradecote and Catchpoll (and Wakelin) medieval mystery is always a true delight ... An absolute joy'
  M. J. PORTER
  
  
  1140s Worcestershire is a place death visits often, and it is up to Serjeant Catchpoll and his new, unwanted superior, Undersheriff Hugh Bradecote to ensure that the guilty are brought to justice.
  
  In Servant of Death, the much-feared and hated Eudo - the Lord Bishop of Winchester's clerk - is bludgeoned to death in Pershore Abbey and laid before the altar like a penitent. A despicable man he may have been, but who had reason to kill him?
  
  In book 2, Ordeal by Fire, Catchpoll hopes a fire at a Worcester silversmith's is just an accident, but then a charred corpse is discovered following a second fire. Hugh Bradecote may be new to the job of Undersheriff compared to his wily colleague, but his analytical eye is soon hard at work to find a vengeful arsonist.
  
  In Marked to Die, the third instalment in the series, the lord Sheriff of Worcestershire cannot ignore brazen attacks on the salt road from Wich, so Hugh Bradecote and Serjeant Catchpoll have an elusive master archer in their sights.
  
  In book 4, Hostage to Fortune, the sleuths face a frantic race against time in an unforgiving winter landscape. The Archbishop of Canterbury's envoy, his entourage of monks and Bradecote's betrothed Christina are travelling on a pilgrimage when they are captured by a renegade who kills for pleasure. Undersheriff Bradecote and Serjeant Catchpoll must orchestrate a rescue before a psychopath does his worst and Bradecote cracks under the pressure.
  
  The fast-paced and suspenseful medieaval mystery series continues in Vale of Tears. A body is found floating by Fladbury mill, a man who has been stabbed but not robbed. Undersheriff Hugh Bradecote, Serjeant Catchpoll and their young apprentice Walkelin discover him to be a horse dealer with a beautiful young wife who strays. Did the wife or a lover get rid of him? What link is there to a defrocked monk who was hanged for theft, and where is the horse dealer's steed?

  They claim I'm their fated mate and that I belong to them. They're big, bad, with appendages so massive they could make a cobra blush. But me and three monsters? Never going to happen. Too bad for me, hot, buff alphas don't handle rejection well . . . 
   
   
   
  They take me captive, forcing me into a twisted game. The rules? Simple. Survive their game and escape or end up their little plaything forever.

  Five years have passed, and the Guardians and the people of The Realm have reached a new, albeit tetchy, equilibrium. The threat of civil war bubbles constantly, but so far, the Guardians have kept control. 
  It won’t take much for that to change. 
  People are going missing from one of the villages, returning days later, emaciated, exhausted, and claiming to have been forced to work on a building in a strange world. Where are they being taken? And who is taking them there? 
  The foe threatening The Realm is far more sinister than the rogue Guides. They could destroy everything the Guardians rely on. Far from being the protectors of The Realm, the Guardians could be forced to be its destroyers. 
  Can Aeron and Faran find a way to save The Realm without sacrificing everything they hold dear? Or will The Realm finally fall?
