“It paints views and pictures, it makes history spring alive, immersing the reader in the distant past.”

The battle is over, but now he’s the son of a traitor…

England 1485. The new Court of Henry VII is a dangerous time – Now the son of a traitor, Alex must hide his identity. But discovering the near decapitated body of his cousin could have even more catastrophic consequences. No one can be trusted, not even those closest to you.

Danger it seems, is never far away…

Without the brave soldier who led her to safety, Lady Katherine would have joined the fallen bodies. Returning home to find the enemy’s pennant flying overhead and an unfamiliar lord demanding her hand in marriage. Impulsive and hot headed, she must find a way back to her new friend, but where is he? And is she safer staying where she is?

Guilty or not?

After yet another murder, Alex’s discoveries could lead him to the killer or the gallows. While Lady Katherine has to make an impossible choice to retreat behind the safety of castle walls or risk more than her reputation to help solve these final riddles and catch the culprit.

Medieval London comes alive with suspense in this historical mystery set in 15th century England.

What readers are saying:

“This is a book that bombards the reader with sounds, smells and tastes. It paints views and pictures, it makes history spring alive, immersing the reader in the distant past.”

“I can but congratulate all those readers who have this delightful experience before them and look forward to reading more of Ms Gaskell Denvil's excellent writing.”

“Satin Cinnabar has the edge on Game of Thrones, since it is based on fact - and that in itself provides the additional winning dynamic to all the richness, colour and movement of the times so extraordinarily captured.”

"For the portrayal of detail of life in early Tudor London, Ms Denvil is among the very best of writers."

"I love well written and well-plotted medieval novels where you feel you are living the story. Ms Gaskell Denvil's book satisfies on both counts."

"I just couldn’t put it down, I love this author, she manages to combine history with a good mystery, has obviously done her research."
