This romantic thriller, with a historical twist, is full of the unexpected. A surprise inheritance, a beautiful girl and a not-so-pleasant young man are only the beginning of Martin Aisby's adventures. He finds himself involved with an Elizabethan ghost, a mysterious riddle and a hidden treasure that links the past to the present before all is finally settled. Populated by characters like the urbane James Culpepper and the gentlemanly butler, Forbes, as well as the rough, Yorkshire farmer, Geoff Holmes, and the cockney taxi-driver, Bert Hall, the story evokes nostalgia, humour, curiosity and excitement. It will appeal to all who like mystery, history and romance.
