When disgraced British soldier Jack Starling returns to London he finds his brother murdered. Hidden nearby is a mysterious, hand-written poem hinting at a secret treasure trove of Napoleonic gold. With his own life on the line, Jack tracks the poem's clues across the sites and monuments of London, at the same time evading criminals, fortune-hunters and the law. Will Jack be able to solve the poem and uncover the secret of Napoleon’s gold, or will he face torture and death at the hands of his brother's killer?
Napoleon’s Gold is a thrilling debut novel that takes the reader on a white-knuckle race from start to finish. The Manuscript Appraisal Agency declares Napoleon’s Gold "a well resolved, page-turner that has all the ingredients for success … a magnificent ride around the historical monuments of London, then on to France, Belgium and Waterloo... antagonists clash and up the ante as they outsmart, outwit and outlive the many and varied confrontations…"
Napoleon’s Gold will appeal to those who enjoy the works of Jeffery Archer, Dan Brown, Bernard Cornwell, Clive Cussler, Matthew Reilly and John Le Carre.
