Autumn,1646. The First Civil War is over, but the killing is not
yet done. William Falkland, former favourite of King Charles turned
reluctant investigator for Cromwell, seeks his missing family. As
his hopes are once again dashed, a figure from his past reappears -
Cromwell is not finished with him. Ordered to London, Falkland must
help an irascible man of letters named John Milton, whose cherished
sister was apparently abducted by the king's supporters. Falkland's
task will lead him towards a brutal act buried in the maelstrom of
the War, and a secret that threatens not just his own life, but
also the fragile peace England so desperately needs... Praise for
The Royalist, the first powerful mystery featuring William
Falkland: 'A page-turning novel, unpredictable and suspenseful,
haunted by intriguing twists and turns... The characters are
vividly portrayed, three-dimensional and convincing' Historical
Novels Review 'I take my hat off to the author for his ability and
desire to portray all of this horror and dirt... Highly
recommended' Parmenion Books 'Deas writes at a furious pace... It
is his wonderful descriptions and his creation of a powerfully
charged atmosphere that really capture the reader' We Love This
