By Murder's Bright Light by Paul Doherty
Scandal, murder and treason… Athelstan and Cranston are back with a bang.Winter, 1379. French privateers are attacking the southern coast and threaten London itself, the very heart of the nation. The situation becomes dire when an English flotilla of warships, with the colossal God’s Bright Light among them, drops anchor in the Thames; during the first night, the entire watch of the ship disappears without a trace. The series of murderous and strange incidents leads to Sir John and Brother Athelstan being summoned to resolve the mysteries on board the ill-omened warship. Their investigations uncover some shocking truths – and they find themselves in the thick of a bloody battle on the Thames. A gripping and suspenseful historical mystery with plenty of action, perfect for fans of Michael Jecks, S. G. MacLean and Susanna Gregory.Paul Doherty was born in Middlesbrough in 1946. He was admitted to Liverpool University to study History, and won a state scholarship to Exeter College, Oxford. While there he met his wife, Carla.
He was appointed as Headmaster to Trinity Catholic High School, Essex, in 1981. Paul has written a slew of historical mystery series set in the Middle Ages, Classical Greece and elsewhere. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages.
