1. The Equivoque Principle
The arrival of Marvello’s Travelling Circus to the streets of Victorian London was supposed to herald a carnival of entertainment and wonder but when a series of brutal and savage murders take place the number one suspect is the circus strongman, Prometheus. Enter Cornelius Quaint, circus owner and master conjuror, to clear the name of his gargantuan employee. But what he sees as a simple case of wrongful arrest proves to be more complex when ghosts from his own past start to appear on the scene and events take an unexpected turn. This is a book of great wit and bravado, a circus of a novel with a central character who will sweep you off your feet and into this dark historcal adventure.
2. The Eleventh Plague
The thrilling sequel to The Equivoque Principle Picking up where The Equivoque Principle left off, The Eleventh Plague sees Cornelius Quaint embark on his most perilous adventure yet. With clairvoyant fortune-teller Madame Destine as his companion, Quaint must do battle with desert thieves, survive vicious betrayals and negotiate hazardous plots in order to derail the villainous Hades Consortium’s plans to poison the River Nile. The Times called The Equivoque Principle a ‘boisterous comedy’ with ‘hairpin plot twists’ and The Eleventh Plague follows in that tradition of Victorian romp and adventure.
3. The Lazarus Curse
Directly on the heels of his Egyptian adventures in The Eleventh Plague, Cornelius Quaint finds himself drawn into another gripping and treacherous plot. This time, Quaint must intercept Cho-Zen Li’s scheme to assassinate the Queen and unleash a devastating plague on Victorian England. Before long he is enlisted by the Queen herself to hunt Li down and put an end to his cruel reign over the Yahn Province of China. But even the brilliant conjuror does not realise the extent of the danger in his path. A storm is heading in Quaint’s direction, and neither he nor his companions from the travelling circus can do to anything to prevent it. In The Lazarus Curse, Quaint sets his sights on Q’in Mountain and his most perilous adventure yet.
