Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is more than just bloody murder Inspector, this is a race war, with magic on one side and a right evil monster who thinks it's the devil's work on the other." Archibald Strop. Editor. The Newgate Calendar. DCI Judas Iscariot of Scotland Yard's occult magic division, the Black Museum, has only been back in London for five minutes when things get bloody. Bloody quickly. Something evil has returned from the depths of the London Necropolis Burial Grounds. There's only one thing that its black heart desires - the extermination of the Fae and the destruction of the magical underworld they inhabit. The attacks begin, the death toll rises, and Judas quickly realises that the Fae and all the races of London's Under Folk are in danger. And with fairy pickpockets, Welsh tree spirits that love a good hustle, Dick Whittington's cat, angels and lots of friendly fire from a new threat to the Black Museum to contend with, he's far busier than he would like to be. Then Lucifer the Morningstar, First of the Fallen, arrives unannounced; he knows something that Judas doesn't, and wants him to change sides as payment for spilling the beans. Surrounded by enemies, always one step behind, and running out of time as usual, it's all looking a bit bleak for Judas. But isn't it always?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Rawlings, London's effervescent 18th Century apothecary and occasional sleuth, tackles his most intriguing case to date. The scene was an exact replica of the one that had taken place twenty-four hours earlier. John Rawlings stood in the shop at Apothecaries' Hall buying the herb known as true-love. The only difference was that both he and the shop owner were buzzing with intrigue as they discussed the extraordinary outbreak of food poisoning which had stricken the liverymen who attended dinner at the Worshipful Society the previous day. And how Liveryman Alleyn might have died had John not given him the remedy of true-love. Except the following day Liveryman Alleyn does die. Under the brief and guidance of London's famous blind magistrate, John Fielding Rawlings is asked to investigate wether it is a deliberate case of poisoning. But who would want to poison the apothecaries? And were they targeting the Society or specifically the deceased? As John searches for gossip, he discovers that a fellow apothecary visited the dying man's house on the morning of his death, that the Beadle had fallen out with the Master, that a bereaved parent whose son died as a result of misdiagnosis has vowed vengeance on the entire Society.
