Death of a Colonial

Eighteenth-century judge Sir John Fielding is back, in the sixth and most intriguing of the highly praised mysteries featuring the blind magistrate and his ward, Jeremy. When a nobleman, the last of his line, is executed, and his possessions are set to go to the Crown, his younger brother, missing for seven years, suddenly reappears to stake his claim. But where has he been? Why does his mother react to him so oddly? To find the answers, Sir John and Jeremy must travel from London to Bath to Oxford -- and finally, to a much darker place....Bruce Alexander is the author of 'Death of a Colonial' with ISBN 9780783888231 and ISBN 0783888236.
