Nelleke H. Maaren Book order (chronological)

The international bestseller is now available in the United States. In the bitter years of World War II, during the Nazi occupation, two brothers find themselves at the mercy of a German guard who makes a surprising proposition of his own.

A tantalizing new Dick Francis mystery as violent and wild as the wind off the Scottish Highlands. Alexander Kinloch, an eccentric artist who lives alone on a Scottish mountainside, receives a card from his mother in London summoning him to the bedside of his dying stepfather. The news takes him by surprise, but the realization that his stepfather is unintentionally about to take Alexander to the grave with him is the shock that draws Alexander out of the untamed wilderness and into the much more perilous company of polite society.
