Highwayman: War’s End
Michael Arnold
For Major Samson Lyle, former solider in Cromwell’s Roundhead army turned infamous outlaw, the Ironside Highwayman, trouble is never far away. It even follows him to the graveside of his beloved surrogate mother, Ursula.
When a thief steals a sacred bible from a band of mercenary sailors, their leader, the ruthless gun captain Marek, believes that Lyle is the culprit and exacts revenge by taking Ursula’s son hostage. Lyle and his comrades, his trusted young ward Bella and the irascible former smuggler Eustace Grumm, must retrieve the bible to exchange for the boy’s life.
To save an innocent and defeat Marek, the Ironside Highwayman must ride again.
Lyle and his companions track the Bible and its seven-fingered thief, Whisler, across England until he is captured by the highwayman’s old nemesis, Colonel John Maddocks. But not all is as seems.
Conflict breeds treachery, as well as loyalty.
Can the highwayman defeat his new enemy while avoiding the bloodlust of his old one?
