Destroying Angel

A POISONING

Yorkshire, 1655. Seeker has been ordered to the North a place from which he fled a decade earlier. A routine visit to the village of Faithly turns ugly when the village commissioner's ward is poisoned at a dinner for locals.

THE BLACK ARTS

Among those invited was the government-appointed enforcer of Puritan morality in the region. Perhaps this symbol of Cromwell's power was the intended victim? Or Seeker himself? Or was it the young woman, who had a magic way with herbs and was rumoured to be a witch?

THE DARKER PAST

As he investigates the girl's death, old secrets come to haunt Seeker. A painful meeting will force a reckoning between his past and present. But with a prominent Royalist on the run in Yorkshire, and a murderer still at large, any distractions could prove deadly.
