About this product

Product Information

The year is 1820. Rider Sandman, a hero of Waterloo, returns to London to wed his fianc e. But instead of settling down to fame and glory, he finds himself penniless in a country where high unemployment and social unrest rage, and where men--innocent or guilty--are hanged for the merest of crimes. When he's offered a job as private investigator to re-open the case of a painter due to be hanged for a murder he didn't commit, Sandman readily accepts--as much for the money as for a chance to see justice done in a country gone to ruins. Soon, however, he's mired in a grisly murder plot that keeps thickening. Sandman makes his way through gentlemen's clubs and shady taverns, aristocratic mansions, and fashionable painters' studios determined to rescue the innocent young man from the rope. But someone doesn't want the truth revealed.

  • Gallows Thief

    Bernard Cornwell's book, "Gallows Thief" is one that should be turned into a series of books. Set in the Regency era of England, Cornwell shows those who have and those who have not. The have nots are usually either sent to Australia, or they are hung. In this book the hero must prove that one of the have nots is innocent of killing a titled woman who is definitely one of the haves. Not only must he unravel the mystery of who really did kill her, but he finds along the way that there are those who don't want him to discover the answer. This is an excellent book that will keep you up at night it's so good.
