Story
Civil war is ripping England apart. Families are divided, emotions run high. Whether on the bleakness of the moors or in snug, wood-panelled rooms, danger lurks. A body is found, its mouth pierced with thorns. The Justice of the Peace, a godly man, is certain that witchcraft is involved. Only his assistant, former cavalryman John Carne, looks for reason where others see demons and witches.

Story
The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. His superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke-known for his behind-the-scenes machinations-have an ulterior motive?

Der erste Rand der großen Bettauer-Retrospektive. Der politisch visionäre Roman von Hugo Bettauer veranschaulicht das Sittenbild der 1920er Jahre und wirft brandaktuelle Fragen nach Schuld und Sühne in Krisenzeiten auf. Desillusioniert und völlig verarmt kehrt der ehemalige Freiherr Kolomann von Isbaregg aus dem verlorenen Ersten Weltkrieg zurück und findet sich in der gesellschaftlichen Neuordnung nicht mehr zurecht: Weder seine adelige Herkunft noch seine militärischen Leistungen für die untergegangene k. und k Monarchie Österreich-Ungarn, sind noch einen Deut wert.
