“Parsons and tyrants friends take note. We have born your oppreshuns
long enough. We will have our parish rights or else Bloodie Bones will drink
your blood.”
When Lord Oldfield encloses Barcombe
Wood, depriving the people of their ancient rights to gather food and fuel, the
villagers retaliate with vandalism, arson and riot. Then Lord Oldfield’s
gamekeeper, Josh Castle, is murdered during a poaching raid. Dan Foster, Bow
Street Runner and amateur pugilist, is sent to investigate.
Dan’s job is to infiltrate the poaching
gang and bring the killers to justice. But there’s more to Castle’s death than
at first sight appears. What is the secret of the gamekeeper’s past and does it
have any connection with his murder? What is Lord Oldfield concealing? And did
someone beside the poachers have a reason to want Josh Castle dead?
As tensions in Barcombe build to a
thrilling climax, Dan will need all his wits and his fighting skills to stay
alive and get to the truth.
Bloodie Bones is a
finalist in the Historical Novel Society Indie Award 2016 (result to be
announced in September); was long listed for the M M Bennetts Award for
Historical Fiction 2016; and is approved by Awesome Indies.
