THE CHÂ​TEAU SARONY BOOKS
When Anna Freemont strode along Grantfield High Street in a seething fury, she had no idea that her life was about to change out of all recognition. Her expletive-laden comment to the man working on road repairs outside The Magpie public-house marked the start of a relationship that catapulted her from a middle-class academic life into the adventures which form the Château Sarony novels.
The Treasure of Chretien De Sarony
ISBN-13: 978-1533362407
“Now sit down and tell me what you know about a certain Chretien de Sarony.”
Those words started Anna Freemont on a journey that would forever change her life. Within six months she was living in France and experiencing not only the thrill of research into a centuries-old mystery but adjusting to life in the company of Martin Price. There was far more to the man than met the eye and his willingness to meet danger head-on unnerved a woman whose good looks hid a deep lack of self-confidence. A working relationship fraught with uncertainty was not helpful in the search for the Treasure of Chretien De Sarony.
The Grace Dieu Project
ISBN-13: 978-1533477378
“It’s all a bit lopsided isn’t it Martin? Everything we’ve found is just a little bit out of kilter. We've got a WW1 soldier carrying a Crimean War vintage sabre, who was somehow killed at the same time as four WW2 soldiers, and none of them were discovered until 1990. That's beside the apparent appearance of SS troops whom everybody states were not there. In fact not so much lopsided as plain impossible to make any sense of ."
A seemingly unexciting investigation as a favour for a friend pitches Anna and Martin Price into a dangerous encounter with unknown opponents who will stop at nothing to frustrate their work.
The Considine Affair
ISBN-13: 978-1534642430
Horrified, Anna could only watch as the thieves, having accomplished their mission, turned back to retrace their steps and found Aggie Cleburne the American woman in their path. One of them ran at her, swinging his arm at head height with the clear intention of knocking her out of the way. She ducked and, spinning to her left, landed a side-footed stamp with her right leg to the outside of his knee. The leg buckled at an alarming angle and with a howl of pain, her attacker crashed to the pavement.
A quiet lunch in Dijon took an unexpected turn when Anna and Martin accompanied their American friends to the nearest large town. It was an unpleasant interruption to their research into an intelligence leak that could have compromised the success of the D-Day landings in 1944.
The source of the leak had never been identified.
The Lou-Lou Legacy​
ISBN: 9798251693225
The discovery of incomplete skeletal remains on a Swiss mountain by Celeste Palin's Grandparents provides Anna and Martin Price with an apparently insoluble mystery when there are no obvious clues to the person's identity. The remains had stayed hidden in a gully for almost one hundred years, and it was unclear how they came to be where they were found.
Could there be any connection with the events at a British POW camp at Freiburg during 1915? Cavalry Captain Courtenay Mallory Rushwell becomes deeply involved with a German woman working for Abteilung iiib, the Imperial German Intelligence Service. Exactly which of them is a traitor to their country?
The Mayfair Ring​
ISBN: 9798285767626
In 1941, the small counter-intelligence section known as RU40, run by Clarence Wilkinson, was instrumental in shutting down a German counterfeiting operation. Many in the intelligence service considered the case had been satisfactorily concluded, although it was never discovered exactly how instructions were passed between the German Abwehr and its agents in Britain. Wilkinson is determined to uncover the method employed and, with Jenny Matheson and Tom Adams, commences an investigation which takes them to the south coast of England.
During the course of the investigation, Jenny Matheson is subjected to attention of a romantic nature, which leads her to take extreme action as the only way to fend off the unwanted advances.
​The third book in the Wilkinson at War series takes place in 1940s Britain and follows Clarence Wilkinson and Jenny Matheson as they examine the events unfolding on the Kentish coast with Britain facing the threat of invasion from enemy-occupied Europe.

Alternatively, if you enjoyed my earlier books featuring the husband and wife team of Anna and Martin Price, then this sixteenth Château Sarony novel is for you.
