Days of Mercy


News item: Today I started circulating the first few chapters of my novel, which I am calling Days of Mercy.

Meanwhile, here is an updated description of the story: 

A British spy dies while rescuing a young aristocrat from the French Revolution.  The aristocrat, ungrateful and mortally offended to owe his life to a commoner, determines to discredit the spy’s reputation. Searching for hidden scandals, he inadvertently uncovers a plot to overthrow the British Monarchy, pulling himself into a perilous underworld of treason and crime.  In an epic journey across France, England and Wales, the boy aristocrat can only survive by finding the man within himself, and finishing the work the once detested spy had started.
