David Pilling's review
of
King John, Henry III and England's Lost Civil War:
"As the title states, the subject of this book is a forgotten or ‘lost’ civil war in England. This is not the conflict between King John and his barons, known as the First Barons’ War, but a brief war between Henry III and Richard Marshal, Earl of Pem"

King John, Henry III and England's Lost Civil War:
"As I am only passingly familiar with the early events of Henry III's reign, I found this book quite enlightening for unfolding the history and putting it into perspective. That perspective is greatly developed by the study of events from the beginnin"

Great to be friends here too! Have fun with it.
The Kindle price is £2.99 and the paperback price is £9.32.
A successful career woman is found dead on the floor of her North London kitchen with her throat brutally slashed. Beside the body lies a half-open razor with a single droplet of blood at the tip of an otherwise pristine blade.
However, the forensics prove this razor can’t be the murder weapon, and when another successful career woman is found murdered a few days later, again in her kitchen, again with her throat cut and again with a blood-tipped half-open razor placed beside her body, Detective Chief Inspector John Gore of the Metropolitan Police fears he has a potential serial killer on his hands.
As the body count rises the pressure is mounting on Gore to quickly find and stop the killer.
Meanwhile someone is sending him taunting notes, each headed, Death Comes Calling, and Gore begins to realise the killer is playing mind games not just with the police, but with him personally. The question is…why?
