Redwing Saga #8

The Poisoned Pawn

Rate this book
The year is 1894, and Europe’s elite prepare to converge on Coburg, Germany for a royal wedding. Charles, Beth, and all the Stuart-Sinclair clan are invited, but before the Duke can board the train for Coburg, he must investigate a cold-case death in Vienna. This case will lead him into a new web of enemies—human and supernatural. Can he untangle the web of lies without falling victim to Blackstone’s newest plots? Does Paul Stuart’s assignment in West Africa have anything to do with Blackstone, and what of Cordelia’s melancholia? Are her new doctors trustworthy?

Who is behind the league of limping men? Has Legion escaped?

Another excellent installment!

This series has opened my eyes to many things. It had me laughing, crying, and praying! I really enjoy Sharon's style of writing and the deeper meanings behind the story line. Her writing style is easy to read and I just devour the books as soon as I get my hands on them! I eagerly await the next book!

fascinating series

The Red Wing saga, is a fascinating series of books. Book 8 , “The Poisoned Pawn”. Is the best yet. Just when you think the series can’t get better the author, Sharon K Gilbert tops herself. You will enjoy the color characters and evil villains in this series. Book 8 reminds me of a mix between the Tarzan Series and the Sherlock Holmes series. Looking forward to book 9! Get a cup tea, a comfortable chair and get ready to enjoy.

Futher adventures and complications with Charles Sinclair and Elizabeth plus all the Stuart - Sinclair clan are invited, but before the Duke can join them he to investigate a cold - case death in Vienna. Could this be a new plot by Blackstone? In the same way does Paul Stuart's assignment have anything to do with Blackstone? What of Cordelia's melancholy? Who is behind the league of limping men? For the answers to these questions read this book.
