Available from Amazon UK and Amazon US


Winter, 1482. A strange new weapon has appeared on the frozen streets of medieval London. Few have seen its like before. Sadly, someone has already learned how deadly it can be, and artist, scribe and sometime sleuth Sebastian Foxley must investigate this new murder mystery.


Seb's search for answers takes him from London's humble fisherfolk to the court of Richard, Duke of Gloucester, where he has been commanded to paint a portrait of the Duchess, Anne Neville.


But perhaps the deaths are not the work of a stranger. An enemy from Seb's past has returned, bringing old malice and new danger to the city. With London gripped by bitter cold, Seb must discover who is behind the killings and what they really want before another victim pays the ultimate price.


Join Seb, his family and friends in The Colour of Malice, the fourteenth Sebastian Foxley Medieval Murder Mystery, as secrets are uncovered and murder comes again to the stinking streets of medieval London.
