December 1, 2014

Pre-order now on Amazon here: "The Templar Thief" on Amazon

In the dying days of the Crusader States of the Holy Land, the Grand Master knows that he needs to act in order to preserve some of the greatest treasures his Order possesses. He entrusts this mission to one of his most trusted lieutenants,  the Templar known only as "The Mason".
The Mason needs to find a man who can carry out this mission and he selects one of the most troublesome knights in the Order. A man with a great many defects as a warrior knight, but some unique strengths.

In today's world, Peter Sparke and Professor Tilly Pink begin to follow the trail of a single medallion bearing the face of an obscure medieval holy man, found in the wreck of a ship off the west coast of Scotland's Outer Hebrides islands.

Sparke and Tilly have now worked together on a number of projects and enjoy the challenge of uncovering and deciphering some of history's greatest mysteries together.

Sparke is still a crisis manager and his work takes him into areas of increasing danger across the globe. For Tilly, working with Sparke is an escape from the day to day world of historical research and she looks for ways to partner with him, knowing that his unconventional approach can often be the key to great discoveries.

Book Four

I am at the last stage of writing the fourth Peter Sparke book, "The Templar Thief". For the first time I have put on on Amazon as a pre-order and have been overjoyed to see people signing up to get it already. If you are one of those people, then thanks!
Ending a book is something writers often dread. It means closing a door on a story, and on some characters I have lived with and moving on to the next thing.
One thing is sure, Peter Sparke and Tilly Pink are not leaving my life and the Templar characters, particularly the Mason will be back.
