Reviews

“A colourful and richly textured story worthy of this unique city”

Matthew H. Jacobs – Hampton, New Hampshire USA

“A young man buffeted by world events is left reeling, but survives to build his own empire in Bath. The ancient city has seen it all and has her own cards to play...  Douglas Westcott writes from experience of the chaos of history, business, and wild passions in this gripping trilogy.”

Tom Craigmyle

‘Breathes life into the historical city of Bath – a must read!’

Andrew Foulkes

‘Yet again Douglas Westcott provides the reader with a masterful insight into the City of Bath.’
