Praise for the Powerscourt series:

“Fine prose, high society, and [a] complex plot recommend this series.”—Library Journal

“One hopes to see more of Lord Powerscourt and his friends in the near future.”—Publishers Weekly

In 1905, Lord Francis Powerscourt investigates a series of art thefts from stately homes of the Protestant gentry in Ireland. Then people begin to vanish. As Powerscourt closes in on the killer, his own life is threatened and his patriotism is questioned.

David Dickinson, a BBC editor, lives in West London.
