A historical novella of one of the greatest defeats in Scottish history.
September 9th, 1513
As evening approaches on a wet English hillside, James IV, King of Scots, stands at the head of his 20,000-man army. Across a shallow valley, the Earl of Surrey has gathered a smaller army who have come to defend King Henry VIII’s realm against the invaders.
The English are tired and hungry, having marched eight miles without respite since dawn. The Scots are rested, ready to fight, and hold the vital high ground.
A Scottish victory seems assured.
A masterful tale of pride and ruin. Ross brilliantly captures the tragic folly of a king whose hubris leads him and the flower of Scotland to disaster.
Alistair Tosh, author of The Edge of Empire series
A stag, its eyes pleading, haunts a woman’s dreams. An antique-market find reveals a hidden truth. A man, looking from his bedroom window, wonders exactly where it is his neighbour has gone.
A collection of fourteen short stories and eight poems from the author of Empire’s Legacy, unrelated to the series.
‘the writing is exquisite, as always. There’s a steady and quiet reflection to these stories and verse. ‘
Liis Pallas: Cover to Cover review.
‘City Girl.’
“The overall feel of [City Girl] has an intimate, yet slightly comedic, introspective tone – like Lena Dunham and Helen Fielding.”
K. Michaels, editor, Literary Gararge.
‘Red and Wolfe’
“Denisha Naidoo takes a fizzy approach, tartly satirizing human greed in a taboo-busting crime story
that twists and turns like an Orwellian corkscrew.”
Naomi Foyle, editor, Gramarye.
