The third in the 'Chocolate House Mysteries' series, Captain Hazard's Game conjures up the vibrant life of early eighteenth-century gamesters and money-men.

The second in the 'Chocolate House Mysteries' series, The Devil's Cathedral captures all the energies of the early eighteenth-century stage with its ruthless ambitions and jealousies. The book weaves its classic whodunit plot around the actual events of April-May 1708.
