History Detective Series


-o0o-

A leading writer of adventure thrillers whose first two novels - published through a major South East Asian distributor - achieved high chart positions on three continents, David J Andrews specialises in action adventure stories, the author uses his insider knowledge of the corporate business world to terrific effect in taking the reader inside the esoteric machinations of power..

The fast-paced novels are characterised by a mixture of historical events and modern day settings involving underworld conspiracies and rollercoaster plots that leave the reader breathless, intrigued and mystified with each twist and turn.
 

Having successfully published Lobster Calypso and Endeavour’s Legacy, the author has created an exciting new theme for his next series of adventure thrillers:

The History Detective.

Introducing us to a hidden powerful sect, Asian mysticism and its links to the corporate world, the History Detective series reinvents historical characters in the modern era while using actual historical events as the trigger for each story, thereby making each novel as informative as it is entertaining.

Valuable historical icons are linked to events of huge significance to the modern world. A powerful mysterious cult based in a remote monastery is inexplicably linked and apparently led by the enigmatic Chinese teacher in his quest for immortality.

The history detective is Guy Tresanton, a struggling businessman, amateur historian and sailor with an uncanny ability to foretell events. He fights against seemingly insurmountable odds with the help of a young Chinese female firecracker called Rose and the redoubtable Inspector Monty.

Treachery, violence and sexual power games all add to a heady brew as the action careers across continents towards a final astounding Armageddon.

The first in the series, Chasing Columbus, was published in the UK in April 2008 and plans are already well developed for the publication of the following further titles in the series,

Bahamian Rhapsody

Northern Nemesis

Oriental Armageddon
