![]() ![]() Author: Hodgson Antonia Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt London, 1728. Tom Hawkins is headed to the gallows, accused of murder. Gentlemen don’t hang and Tom’s damned if he’ll be the first. He may not be much of a gentleman, but he is innocent. He just always finds his way into a spot of bad luck. It’s hard to say when Tom’s troubles began. He was happily living in sin with his beloved, Kitty Sparks—though their neighbors were certainly less pleased about that. He probably shouldn't have told London’s most cunning criminal mastermind that he was 'bored and looking for adventure.' Nor should he have offered to help the king's mistress in her desperate struggles with a brutal and vindictive husband. And he definitely shouldn't have trusted the calculating Queen Caroline. She’s promised him a royal pardon if he holds his tongue, but then again, there is nothing more silent than a hanged man. Now Tom must scramble to save his life and protect those he loves. But as the noose tightens, his time is running out. € 24,70

![]() ![]() Author: Hodgson Antonia Publisher: Newton Compton Editori Londra, 1727. Vino, donne e gioco d'azzardo: Tom Hawkins è un uomo che ama correre rischi, anche se questo significa dover sfuggire con ogni mezzo ai creditori e mettere in pericolo la propria famiglia. È così che in un giorno più crudele degli altri Tom viene arrestato e condannato a scontare la pena al Marshalsea Gaol. Non è un carcere qualunque, è l'inferno in terra: punizioni corporali, ricatti e violenze sono all'ordine del giorno e bisogna lottare anche per un tozzo di pane. Nelle buie segrete c'è anche chi lava con il sangue le offese e si fa giustizia da solo. L'unico che sembra aver conservato un po' di umanità è Samuel Fleet, finito a marcire in galera per una colpa che nessuno conosce. Tom si affida a lui per sopravvivere, ma qualcuno gli sussurra un terribile segreto: l'ultimo compagno di cella di Samuel è stato trovato senza vita in una pozza di sangue... Possibile che Samuel Fleet sia un assassino? E di chi altri potrà fidarsi Tom? € 5,90

![]() ![]() Author: Hodgson Antonia Publisher: Mariner Books It’s 1727. Tom Hawkins is damned if he’s going to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a country parson. Not for him a quiet life of prayer and propriety. His preference is for wine, women, and cards. But there’s a sense of honor there too, and Tom won’t pull family strings to get himself out of debt—not even when faced with the appalling horrors of London’s notorious debtors’ prison: The Marshalsea Gaol. Within moments of his arrival in the Marshalsea, Hawkins learns there’s a murderer on the loose, a ghost is haunting the gaol, and that he’ll have to scrounge up the money to pay for his food, bed, and drink. He’s quick to accept an offer of free room and board from the mysterious Samuel Fleet—only to find out just hours later that it was Fleet’s last roommate who turned up dead. Tom’s choice is clear: get to the truth of the murder—or be the next to die. € 14,80
