Jack Blackjack series

London, 1554. Light-fingered Jack Blackjack wakes in a tavern’s yard with a sore head, his knife smeared with blood and a dead stranger lying beside him. Jack may have robbed the man but he’s certain that he didn’t kill him.

Unfortunately, the man’s purse contains something much more valuable than money and, as the prime suspect for the murder, everyone is on Jack’s tail. He needs to get out of the city, and fast, but a rebel army is marching on London: the bridge is blocked and every gate manned. Trapped in the city, Jack must avoid being caught long enough to find the real murderer.
