Plague ravages the city, and the Inquisition takes both innocent and guilty alike. Amongst this chaos Thomas must investigate a series of killings where two victims are taken together, but for what reason? Seeking his help is an old enemy, but can a man change so much? Thomas has to decide whether to trust or not, and if he makes the wrong decision his own life may be forfeit. When the eunuch Jorge joins him, events take on a new urgency as the killer's attention turns toward Thomas and his friends. Only by risking the life of a woman he loves can Thomas succeed, but is he willing to make the ultimate sacrifice if his plan fails?

    • 2017

      For Thomas Berrington, torn between two warring civilisations, Ronda is an escape from the madness engulfing Gharnatah. For al-Zagal, the default leader of al-Andalus, it is a return to his mountain stronghold. During the year 1485 this should be a time of recovery and replenishment. Then the Spanish army arrives, spreading across the plain below towering cliffs. And someone is murdering women so subtly the first the deaths go unnoticed. Thomas and Jorge are once more thrown into the pursuit of a killer as the world around them changes, and the end of a once great civilisation draws closer. Set in the final years of the Moorish Empire that once ruled the whole of Spain, The Incubus is the fourth book in the acclaimed Thomas Berrington mysteries.
