Book #1 – Honor in the Dust
The author of the House of Winslow series offers a thrilling prequel following the ascent of Stuart Winslow in the salacious court of King Henry VIII.
Determined to lift himself out of poverty, Stuart Winslow finds his prayers answered when he’s offered a position in the court of King Henry VIII. A skilled falconer and weapon designer, Stuart quickly proves his merits. But beneath the pomp and luxury of court, he discovers a cauldron of vices, power plays, and temptation.
When William Tyndale announces his intention to translate the Bible into the language of the common man, the king sentences him to death—and charges Stuart with retrieving him. Though Stuart knows Tyndale, and believes his work to be righteous, defying the king would risk his own death. At the crossroads of faith and ambition, he must make an impossible choice.
Book #2 – When the Heavens Fall
A wayward young man finds himself—and his faith—in the fight against Bloody Mary’s Protestant persecution in the sequel to Honor in the Dust.
Mary I of England is determined to eliminate the Protestant faith by edict, sword, or both. In this turbulent time, young Brandon Winslow—the son of the royal falconer Stuart Winslow—finds himself in dire straits. Drummed out of the military for seducing the wife of his commanding officer, he sinks into a life of gambling and petty fraud along with Lupa, the fair gypsy woman who nursed him back to health.
When Brandon sees several Protestants burned at the stake in London, the experience changes him. Though he has only been a nominal member of the Church of England, he finds himself compelled to stop those responsible for these outrages—and to do so before his uncle Quentin, a pastor, is executed for his faith.
The only way to end the scourge is to make Princess Elizabeth queen. Joining such an effort would be punishable by death. It’s a risky proposition to say the least. But then, Brandon has always been a gambler . . .
Book #3 – As the Sparks Fly Upward
A young man finds his calling as a doctor in Queen Elizabeth’s court in this Christian historical trilogy finale—a prequel to the House of Winslow series.
Neither bold and rough like his brother, Adam, nor headstrong and spoiled like his sister, Adara, young Colin Winslow is a gentle soul with a special love for natural things. His interest in animals and healing brings him in contact with Meg Caradoc, a strange woman who lives in the woods, and teaches him the fine art of herbal medicine.
At Oxford, an eccentric but brilliant professor, Dr. Phineas Teague, guides Colin toward a medical career. This formal training, combined with Meg’s herbal remedies, makes Colin an insightful and successful doctor—one with the approving eye of Queen Elizabeth. Colin’s skill quickly earns him many patients, some highly placed in the courts of both his queen and her sister, Mary Queen of Scots.
Soon, this once shy young man finds himself amid court intrigue, acting covertly on the queen’s behalf. When Colin faces his most difficult case—curing the wounds his brave brother suffered in battle—he must confront his attraction to Adam’s wife, his unsteady faith in God, and the limits of his ability to heal.
