Books in the Christopher Redmayne series series

The River Thames is frozen over and the discovery of a dead body casts a pall over the annual Frost Fair.

September 1666. Meeting in the ashes of a devastated London, Christopher Redmayne, an architect with Cavalier instincts, and Jonathan Bale, a Puritan constable, are hardly kindred spirits. Redmayne dedicates himself to rebuilding the city that Bale believes was destroyed by its own inner corruption.
