Produktbeschreibung

Is it really possible that you have stumbled across a secret lost for centuries? A secret that that could change the world order?

From the bustling gold rush and the streets of Melbourne in 1864 to the ancient city of Edinburgh in Scotland, three friends flee from a secret society out for revenge, only to find themselves at the centre of a swirling modern-day Jacobite plot and a 'stop at nothing' British Secret Service.

Major Findo Gask and his Sherlockian friend, Errol Rait, hunted by a murderous secret society, are forced to make a clandestine escape from Melbourne back to Gask's hometown of Edinburgh. While in hiding, Gask visits a second-hand bookshop which launches him on a puzzling trail with several twists and turns. And deadly consequences.

Rait, Gask and Mary Mitchell find themselves pitted against the full might of the British Empire's secret services and a centuries-old Knights Templar Lodge of the Freemasons with a secret to guard and an explosive plan to replace Queen Victoria on the throne with the true King. Murder, kidnap, torture, death stalk their trail.

Gask and Rait alone have the key to avert a constitutional crisis and the violent conflict that would follow. But can they survive to unlock the puzzle?

Immerse yourself in the 1860s with deeply researched real background events and an intermingling with real characters of the day. This is the third book in the Major Gask series the introductory novel was a five-star read by Reader's Choice Book Awards.

Readers of the Major Gask mysteries have become time travellers trapped in an adventure "..left me unable to put it down until my eyes were fuzzy and I had to sleep. First thing the following morning after dog duties etc I had to return to it"..... "The setting of the mining camp was so well done with such detail, I had to finish the chapter because I thought I had mud all over me after finishing the last sentence of the chapter". If you enjoy a Sherlock Holmes adventure or the atmosphere in a Dickens story this will be right up your street.

Will Findo be successful or will the Templars or the Secret Service triumph? You will be unprepared for the heart-thumping ending. Travel back in time and join the adventure.
