Jack Lark Book 10

Egypt, 1869.

Jack Lark has reinvented himself once more. Working as an unofficial agent for the Consul-General, he moves among the most powerful men in Cairo. But when the opportunity arises to join legendary explorer Sir Samuel White Baker on his expedition into the Sudan, Jack can't resist a new adventure.

Jack assumes command of an elite cadre to protect the fleet of vessels. But, as they move down the Nile, Jack and his men soon find themselves in a land where the rule of law means nothing, and those who wield power will do anything to keep it. And when a new friend seeks Jack's help, Jack must decide where his loyalties truly lie...

Selected Praise

This is historical adventure with nuance and a flawed, melancholy hero.
— ​The Times
A gripping adventure from start to finish. Jack Lark might not be the hero anyone wants, but he’s most definitely the hero you need!
— R. S. Ford, author of the War of the Archons series
Like all the best vintages Jack Lark has aged to perfection. Scarred, battered and bloody, his story continues to enthral.
— ​Anthony Riches, author of the Empire series
