The Sunday Times bestselling historical thrillers. Meet Matthew Hawkwood: soldier, spy, lover.

You don't send a gentleman to catch vermin. You send Hawkwood. Book 2, RESURRECTIONIST: In London, the death trade is booming. But there's a fine line between body snatching and murder. Hawkwood investigates, and his trail leads him to an obsessive surgeon – who has escaped from Bedlam – with a terrible point to prove...

But rumour tells of a sinister smuggling operation aboard, and when two Royal Navy officers mysteriously disappear, it's time to send in Hawkwood...
