BOOK FIVE OF THE SIR BLANDFORD CANDY ADVENTURE SERIES"Jemahl Evans takes us on a rollicking ride through embattled seventeenth century England. The tumultuous times of the English Civil War leap from the pages like blasts from the matchlocks and cannons over Marston Moor. Jemahl Evans does for the seventeenth century what George MacDonald Fraser did for the nineteenth. Blandford Candy is as endearing a rogue as you are likely to find in any work of literature. Captain Candy is a truly stunning character." Matthew Harffy.1646.Blandford Candy, rake and spy, travels to the colonies on family business. He becomes embroiled in a quest for a priceless emerald cross, once destined for the Pope in Rome but lost in the American wilderness.Our hero has to escape a mutinous pirate crew, warring settlers, and hostile native tribes, but Blandford soon realises that there are others searching for the jewel. A Jesuit agent, Father William Francis, and his renegade band hunt for Candy along the banks of the Susquehanna River.Blandford cannot escape from England's civil war, as the colonies burn during The Plundering Time. The pioneering colonist, Margaret Brent, struggles to hold Maryland together in the conflict. Candy must choose a side, if he is to make it home before the relentless Father Francis can catch him.It is a new world but Blandford has the same old problems.Recommended reading for fans of George Macdonald Fraser, Michael Arnold and Michael Jecks.Jemahl Evans is the author of the acclaimed Sir Blandford Candy series of novels.
