FROM THE Crimean War to the Indian Raj, the Alexander Sheridan Adventures deftl
y combine history and supposition in tales of scarlet soldiering that cunningly interweave fact and fiction.
Alexander Sheridan, unjustly forced out of the army, leaves Britain and his former life behind and joins the East India Company, still in pursuit of those ideals of honor and heroism that buoyed the British Empire for three hundred years. Murder, war, and carnage await him. But with British stoicism and an unshakable iron will, he will stand against the atrocities of war, judging all by their merit rather than by the color of their skin or the details of their religion.
“Stuart’s saga of Captain Sheridan during the Mutiny stands in the shadow of no previous work of fiction, and for historical accuracy, writing verve and skill, and pace of narrative, stands alone.”
—El Paso Times
V. A. STUART wrote several series of military fiction and numerous other novels under various pseudonyms, her settings spanning history and the globe. Born in 1914, she was in Burma with the British Fourteenth Army, became a lieutenant, and was decorated with the Burma Star and the Pacific Star.

The Privateersman Mysteries
In his exciting new six-volume series—available now in the U.S. for the first time—David Donachie re-invents the nautical fiction genre with his smart, authentic, action-filled shipboard whodunits set in the 1790s.
When Donachie’s hero, Captain Harry Ludlow, is forced out of the Royal Navy under a cloud, he becomes a privateersman in partnership with his younger brother James, a rising artist with his own reasons for leaving London. Together, intrigue and violent death take more of their time than hunting fat trading vessels.
“Not content to outflank and out-gun C. S. Forester with his vivid and accurate shipboard action, storm havoc and battle scenes, Donachie has made Ludlow the most compulsively readable amateur detective since Dick Francis’ latest ex-jockey.”
—Cambridge Evening News
“High adventure and detection cunningly spliced. Battle scenes which reek of blood and brine; excitements on terra firma to match.”
