About the Book


'These are the most exciting historical crime novels I've read in a long time.'
Christopher Fowler, author of the Bryant and May mysteries.

'Robert J Lloyd elegantly laces the story with historical and scientific details, without ever slowing things down, and his sly wit pops up from time to time. I loved this book - even more than its prequel, The Bloodless Boy - and didn't stop for breath.'
Piers Alexander, author of the Calumny Spinks historical novels.

1680.

In the Norfolk Fens, a body is revealed, a man murdered during the time of the Civil Wars.

Harry Hunt of the Royal Society is called to investigate, for the dead man is Sir Jeffrey Hudson, the Queen's dwarf, a fierce warrior for the Royalist cause.

But no one knew of Hudson's death...except the murderer.

For years, an imposter has lived in Hudson's place, working as a spy. Now this man, too, has disappeared, taking with him knowledge of a plot to kill the Queen.

Harry's search takes him to Paris, ruled by Louis XIV and the sinister Chief of Police, La Reynie. There, he becomes ensnared in a city obsessed with poisoning.

With the help of a cross-dressing aristocratic swordswoman, who has schemes of her own, Harry embarks on a desperate race to return to London.

He must save the Queen and all who gather for her Catholic Consult.

He must save them from the Clockwork Assassins.

THE CLOCKWORK ASSASSINS is Harry Hunt's second adventure, the sequel to The BLOODLESS BOY.
About the Author: At school I wanted to be an artist, thinking I was going to be the next great English painter. I did a BA degree in Fine Art, in Coventry, but moved more into art theory, ideas, and writing. It was during my study for an MA in the History of Ideas, in Newcastle, that I discovered Robert Hooke's Diary. The research, and the ideas and characters that I came across stayed with me; after years of tinkering these turned into The Bloodless Boy, the first of Harry Hunt's adventures, and now The Clockwork Assassins. I'm represented by Sheil Land Associates literary agency. Many thanks are due to Gaia Banks there who spotted the original submission of The Bloodless Boy. I'm married and I have three splendid children, and live in the Brecon Beacons. Follow me on Twitter as @robjlloyd. On Facebook, I'm Robert J Lloyd.
