Andrew Logan, one of the King's Messengers, is sent north with secret orders to find and arrest the man the king suspects. Phoebe Westaway, a young woman with a troubled past, cannot abide Andrew Logan, but when her aging father is tasked with helping Logan, Phoebe finds herself with no choice but to join them in their quest to capture Sir David Moray, once Prince Henry's trusted courtier, and carry him to London to stand trial for the prince's murder. It's a journey rife with complications, as Sir David has no intention of allowing himself to be delivered to London, and as he draws them deeper into the dark web of court alliances and rivalries, Phoebe realizes she might have more need of Logan than she believes. A story of justice, honor, truth, and love – and survival against impossible odds… Praise for The Vanished Days: 'Fascinating and immersive… I love a novel that deals with the many ways in which people keep their secrets' – DIANA GABALDON 'A hugely engrossing book and a complete world created' – IAN RANKIN 'The Vanished Days is an absolute tour de force of historical storytelling, tender and dramatic, gripping and authentic.
