Justice Belstrang Mysteries – Book 3

Get ready for the final thrilling title in John Pilkington’s gripping Justice Belstrang mystery series! Perfect for fans for S. J. Parris and Andrew Taylor

England, 1618. Ex-magistrate Robert Belstrang receives a plea from a dying friend, Sir Richard Mountford, to visit him at Foxhill Manor. However once he arrives, he discovers that Sir Richard is not dying, but merely desperate.

His brother John has been killed in an explosion at the family’s iron foundry, down in the remote Forest of Dean. They cast cannons for the Royal Armouries – a privileged and lucrative business. But Sir Richard does not believe John’s death was an accident, and implores Belstrang – the only man he can trust – to investigate.

But when Belstrang starts to ask questions, the mystery only deepens and once the truth begins to unfold, it does so with dangerous implications reaching far beyond England’s shores.

This time Belstrang must follow the trail to the bitter end, which could result in the saving of his own estate – or his total ruin.
