Will Thomas, "Lethal Pursuit" (Minotaur, 2019)

from New Books in Historical Fiction · host Marshall Poe

London, 1892. Private enquiry agents Cyrus Barker and Thomas Llewelyn have been tasked by the Prime Minister to deliver a satchel to the Vatican. The satchel contains a document desperately desired by the German government, an unnamed first-century gospel. With secret societies, government assassins, political groups, and shadowy figures of all sorts doing everything they can to acquire the satchel and its contents—attacks, murders, counterattacks, even massive street battles, and with a cold war brewing between England and Germany—this small task might be beyond even the prodigious talents of Cyrus Barker. Join us, as we speak with author Will Thomas about his recent book, Lethal Pursuit, the eleventh historical mystery novel in the Barker & Llewelyn series. Will Thomas is the author of the Cyrus Barker and Thomas Llewelyn series, which includes Blood is Blood, Old Scores, Hell Bay, and the Shamus and Barry Award-nominated Some Danger Involved. He lives with his family in Oklahoma. Michael Morales is Professor of Biblical Studies at Greenville Seminary, and the author of Who Shall Ascend the Mountain of the Lord?(2015) and Exodus Old and New (2020).
