Lucy E Hawksmoor, expert on all things Arabic and professor of history at Granada University, is now nearer than ever to finding the final resting place of Boabdil, last king of the Moors, but each step closer to her goal brings her life and those she loves and cares for into mortal danger. The Far Right are finding different and terrifying ways to get what they want, even resorting to poisoning and witchcraft, and the stakes are getting higher for Lucy. And then she comes across the mysterious and shadowy Daughters of the Dead - but do they all really have her best interests at heart?Ultimately, Lucy realises she must face the dangers alone, for unwittingly only she holds the key to what really happened 600 years before in Granada. The promise Boabdil made and the discovery of the truth about what really happened is in her hands, yet Lucy fears she may have trusted one person too many and in a nail-biting climax she realises she could bring both her world and the past tumbling down.This is the exciting sequel to 'Let the Dead Hold Your Hand', a modern tale of mystery, political intrigue and history all wrapped in a story of love, bravery, and trust with, at the centre, a new and different hero for the 21st century, the enigmatic Lucy E. Hawksmoor.

Lucy, unaware of the dangerous world she is entering, receives death threats and then a Muslim student is murdered. She is plunged into a nightmare world, not knowing who she can trust. Is Gloria who she claims to be? How far will her enemies go to stop her? As riots sweep Granada, Lucy's search for Boabdil's tomb becomes a political timebomb - one that will endanger the lives of everyone involved.

This guidebook covers the northern stages of the Pennine Bridleway, through Lancashire, Yorkshire and Cumbria, a dedicated and waymarked mountain biking and horse-riding trail that opened in 2011. Using part of the Mary Towneley Loop, the route is described for mountain bikers from Summit, just outside Rochdale all the way to Ravenstonedale in Cumbria, in about 176km. 11 circular day mountain bike routes are included for those who do not wish to ride the whole route as a linear trail. It splits the main bridleway into rides of 8 - 16 miles in length. A grand total of 384km of trail are covered, mapped using OS map extracts and illustrated with profiles, photographed and described in enough detail to suit all levels of navigational ability. Appendices also offer information on local facilities, accommodation, bike shops and other useful contacts for planning your days out or longer trip along the Bridleway, and information provided before each route description includes distance, ascent, grading, estimated time and percentage of route off-road, as well as maps needed and pubs and cafes en route.
