    a John Billings Mystery Series

    By Olivier Bosman

    ()

    About this series

    The year is 1895.
    ​
    An ancient manuscript claiming to hold the secrets of God's creation;

    A cunning old woman trying to make sense of it;

    A deluded psychopath intent on stealing it away from her.

     

    ​Private detective John Billings and his assistant Bartholomew Trotter have been tasked with finding a mysterious ancient manuscript known as the "Codex of Solomon" – a book of magical spells much desired by secretive esoteric societies. 

     

    ​They're not the only ones hunting for this artifact. A deluded young psychopath has already committed murder to find it. And a stubborn old woman thinks that this manuscript will give her the respect she so craves.

     

    ​This is the latest in a series of Victorian mysteries exploring the dark side of the late Victorian era. It follows on from the events described in "A Glimpse of Heaven,"  but can be enjoyed as a standalone novel.

    Born to Dutch parents and raised in Colombia and England, I am a rootless wanderer with itchy feet. I've spent the last few years living and working in The Netherlands, Czech Republic, Sudan and Bulgaria, but I have every confidence that I will now finally be able to settle down among the olive groves of Andalucia.
