Praise for Resurrectionist:

‘Breakneck pace, brutal action, clever characterisation and twisty plotting … James McGee brings Regency London to life – or perhaps I should say to death!' Reginald Hill

Praise for Ratcatcher:

'Irresistible… rambunctious entertainment'
Observer

'Rumbustious…a darkly attractive hero, terrific period atmosphere and action' The Times

'Atmospheric and well researched… try it' Daily Mirror

'"Ratcatcher" has everything: duels and derring-do, London highlife and lowlife, French lechery and treachery – all contained in a fast-moving, cleverly constructed plot with an immaculately detailed historical backgroundAdd a hero who is ruthless, mysterious and sexy, and it's a safe bet that "Ratcatcher" marks the start of a series that will run and run … and run!' Reginald Hill

'"Ratcatcher" is a richly enjoyable and impressively researched novel – also very gripping. James McGee is clearly a rising star in the historical galaxy and I look forward to Hawkwood's return' Andrew Taylor, author of 'The American Boy'

James McGee is the pseudonym of Glen Moy, the Ottakar's manager in Tenterden. Glen has worked in banking, sales, newspapers and the airline industry before turning to bookselling. His interest in the Napoleonic period dates to his first reading of C.S.Forester's 'The Gun'. This is the third in a series of books featuring Matthew Hawkwood.
