Few, however, have been as violent as the night One-Eye rode into the town with only one thing on his mind: revenge.

Yet as the chaos Baron revels in begins to surround him, Ford remembers that some lines cannot be crossed.Through each man’s tale, a tapestry is woven, creating a saga of revenge, regret, and redemption, all leading up to the moment where three bullets will change each man’s life forever.

A Study in SpectresSimon
Pearce Mysteries Book 1 of 4
Constable
Simon Pearce doesn’t believe in love. It’s a dangerous proposition for many
people in 19th century London, but for an ambitious copper climbing Scotland
Yard’s greasy career ladder, it’s out of the question.
He
doesn’t believe in monsters, either, though there seem to be a lot of them
about. Whether it’s a ghost haunting a London churchyard where men seek men’s
companionship, a phantom hound in Edinburgh that’s hell-bent on revenge, or a
murdered businessman on a cross-country train who just won’t stay dead — the
mysterious has a way of finding Pearce, whether he wants it to or not.
But
are these happenings truly supernatural? Or is something worse — something
thoroughly human — to blame?
Pearce
has his theories — about crime, about monsters, and about love. But life has a
way of testing even the most carefully considered ideas. And as he chases
mysteries from one end of Britain to the other, he may just have to reconsider
his ideas about all three.
