2001In 334 B. C. Alexander the Great has decided to add Persia to his conquests, but finds his inner circle beset with intrigue and his own divine personage in peril as spies and murderers stalk the tents of his army in this fast-paced page-turner. The young ruler summons his childhood friend, Telamon, to ferret out the identity of the mysterious Naihpat, suspected to be the force behind the wave of deaths. A physician who learned deductive reasoning studying with Aristotle, Telamon reluctantly accepts the duty. Freeing the spunky redhead Cassandra from the slave pens to act as his assistant, he quickly encounters killings accomplished by Celtic knife and club, poison and pushes from cliffs even two deaths that occur in "locked rooms, " that is, tightly sewn tents with Alexander's guards posted at the only entrance. And with each victim is found a scrap of parchment bearing cryptic warnings taken from the Iliad and Euripides. The prolific Doherty, author of The Mask of the Ra and the sizable historical mystery series about Hugh Corbett and Brother Athelstan, deftly handles the period details, from day-to-day life in the camp to the inner courts of the Persian King of Kings, bringing in a vast cast (many soon to die) as Alexander moves across the Hellespont toward the epic battle of the Granicus. Fans of ancient historical mysteries will find themselves in superbly practiced hands. ; 1.07 x 9.54 x 6.37 Inches; 320 pages

2017ril. Joshua Tree, uno studioso della Cabala Ebraica, ricerca in una inesplicabile Venezia l'erede a cui trasmettere le sue conoscenze sulla Cabala, ma il suo progetto è ostacolato da un oscuro essere: "L'artigliatore". Questa misteriosa entità si dimostrerà materiale e non solo "spirituale" e, lentamente, ma inesorabilmente diventerà sempre più pressante ed insistente fino a far cadere il protagonista in una paranoia totale. Dopo aver scoperto di essere gravemente malato, Joshua non avrà molto tempo a disposizione per portare a termine il compito che si è prefisso, ovvero trascrivere tutti i suoi segreti e le "formule magiche" che ha imparato a utilizzare in tantissimi anni di studio. In un viaggio tra passato presente e futuro, un antico manoscritto risalente a Jacob Frank, cabalista ebreo di nazionalità polacca nato nel 1726, consigliere del re Augusto III re di Polonia, farà luce sull'intera vicenda, riaccendendo la luce di Prometeo.

Mona Wilton, una giovane artista, lo aiuterà a rimettere a nuovo il monastero dove apparirà lo spirito dell'antico priore, Ambrosius, murato vivo nella cantina con l'accusa di aver praticato antichissimi riti pagani...
