If you've got a soft spot for historical murder mysteries, this exciting middle grade series set in 18th century London will certainly have you turning page after page...

Main character fifteen-year-old Tom Marlowe lives in the murky, sooty city of London, where he helps his father to run a print shop. Among their customers is wise old Dr Harker, a retired physician and seafarer, who also happens to have a penchant for mysteries. Soon enough, Dr Harker becomes Tom's mentor, and together they will get to the bottom of a murder involving an arrow, uncover a robber who can kill his victims by just pointing at them and even track down what the cause of certain royal murders may be...

This series is perfect for fans of Robin Stevens and Agatha Christie.
