A Grave for a Thief
Douglas Skelton
England, 1716. The only certainty in a thief's life... is death.Christopher Templeton is a lawyer whose conscience troubles him. He knows many of the secrets of The Fellowship, the shadowy group profiting from the civil unrest in the nation, and has intimated to the Company of Rogues that he is willing to share them.
The problem is, he has vanished. Jonas Flynt - thief, gambler, killer - still recovering from a duel with death upon the frozen Thames, is tasked with finding him.
The trail takes him from the dark slums of London to a quiet village in the north of England, where all is not as it seems. But while he hunts for the missing man, someone else may be stalking him... someone with murder in their heart.
The new gripping historical mystery from the author of An Honourable Thief, longlisted for the McIlvanney Prize 2023. Perfect for fans of Abir Mukherjee, Craig Russell and S.G. MacLean.
