Vigilante

In the dead of night, Danny Deacon rushes to his daughter’s bedside, finding her in a coma following a street robbery. Desperate for answers, he discovers the Police know exactly who carried out the attack, but they can't arrest them due to lack of evidence. The only solution is for him to take the law into his own hands.

The line between justice and revenge becomes blurred as Danny races against time to hunt down his daughter’s attackers before his own murky past catches up with him.

The Organisation

Following the tragic deaths of both her parents, baby Alice is adopted by childless relatives. They rename her and in doing so erase her past. Margaret, as she is known, is brought up in a world of luxury, but always senses that something isn’t quite right. In her teens, she comes to the attention of the enigmatic Max, a recruiter for the Organisation – a secretive society whose origins stretch back almost a thousand years. Originally created to destroy the aristocracy, some say that it has become just another criminal enterprise…

Is the Organisation a force for good or evil? That depends on your perspective. Are those who want to destroy it forces for good or evil? That, too, depends on your perspective. Throughout its time, the Organisation has defeated many adversaries, but in the twentieth century it faces the biggest challenge to its survival.

Vampires and Victims

Since the signing of ‘The Treaty’ four hundred years ago the Humans of the Cauldron and the Vampires of Storm Hill have lived alongside one another in comparative peace. However, following the rebellion against Lord Harbinger, Cauldronians are disappearing.



Many Elders believe Vampires are kidnapping their kin to feast on them while others are convinced they are being taken to work as slaves in Vampire factories, mills and mines.



The truth is unimaginably worse.



To keep safe, the Carter family move in with Nana Lyons, despite Charlie Carter being terrified of what he witnessed going into her coal cellar as a child. The stakes are raised to new heights when Jed, Charlie’s little brother, goes missing.

The Brotherhood

A Pope and a King conspire in secret to rid themselves of the Holy Order of Knights. One because they have become too powerful, the other because he owes them a vast fortune. They lure the Holy Order to Poitiers castle where assassins lay in wait for their arrival.

After witnessing the massacre, three brothers escape from their captors and head for England and home. They are pursued every step of their journey by Mercenaries in the pay of the French King. If captured, they face certain death.

During their flight, bitter divisions arise between the brothers on how best to take revenge on the French King. Following an acrimonious power struggle, one of the brothers gets what he wished for while the others are left to suffer their fates at his hands.
