About this listen

Introducing Jonas Flynt. Gambler. Thief. Killer. Man of honor.

1715. Jonas Flynt, ex-soldier and reluctant member of the Company of Rogues, a shady intelligence group run by ruthless spymaster Nathaniel Charters, is ordered to recover a missing document. Its contents could prove devastating in the wrong hands. On her deathbed, the late Queen Anne may have promised the nation to her half-brother James, the Old Pretender, rather than the new king, George I. But the will has been lost. It may decide the fate of the nation. The crown must recover it at all costs. The trail takes Jonas from the dark and dangerous streets of London to an Edinburgh in chaos. He soon realizes there are others on the hunt, and becomes embroiled in a long overdue family reunion, a jail break and a brutal street riot. When secrets finally come to light, about the crown and about his own past, Jonas will learn that some truths, once discovered, can never be untold…

Critic reviews

“Fast, furious and with a glint of gallows humour, this is high-octane historical fiction” DAILY MAIL

This was a very enjoyable romp through a period in Scottish history splashed with the color of a fictional character… and the narrator is wonderful!

Enjoyable history splashed with color…
