Merlin’s Tomb
The Harrogate Chronicles Book 2

Available on Amazon July 17th!

What if the most powerful wizard in history wanted to rule the world?

Lady Esmeralda Eggerton, Countess of Harrogate and agent to Queen Victoria, along with her long-absent half-Fae cohort, Lady Kinzalynn Quinn, are ordered to travel by ship on a simple escort mission. Queen Airmed of the Fae wishes to send a mysterious emissary to Tintagel Castle, famous for its connection to the tales of King Arthur and his wizard, Merlin.

When they reach Tintagel, they discover that Merlin is not who the old tales say.

The ancient faeleth, imprisoned long ago by the Fae, escapes from his tomb, kidnapping Esme. Kinzy, with the help of Trell, her bonded drakkeki, and Esme’s former lover, Rafael Navarro, must track Esme down and rescue her from Merlin’s clutches.

With the whole of Europe in peril, Esme and Kinzy must use every trick at their disposal to defeat Merlin as he enacts his plan to once again rule the Earth—a new Round Table of puppet leaders, with Merlin, using his strange Fae powers, firmly in control.

When Queen Victoria believes Napoleon II, the French Emperor, is after an ancient Incan artifact that grants invincibility to whatever army possesses it, she sends her best agent, Lady Esmeralda Eggerton, Countess of Harrogate, to recover it first. But Queen Airmed of the Fae, the hidden people of Tír na nÓg, has her own plans for the artifact, sending her half-human Shadow agent, Kinzalynn, on a similar mission. Though adversaries, Esme and Kinzy must overcome their mutual distrust and work together before the power of Atahualpa’s mummy falls into the hands of Bonaparte and destroys both their worlds.
