His new character Professor Wilde, a scholar specialized in Tudor England himself nicely fills the gap left by the Bard’s brother in Clements’ former saga. HNS Awards have helped discover and launch the author careers of Michel Faber, Ruth Downie, Hilary Green, Martin Sutton, Kelleigh Greenberg-Jephcott, Nikki Marmery, Margaret Skea, Warwick Cairns, Katherine Mezzacappa and Elizabeth Macneal. And I was immersed in the mysteries, with spies, communists and Nazis, Spanish Gold, Soviet conspirators, politicians and academics all intricately woven into the plot. Although I enjoyed the way the characters (including Wilde) all hark back to the Great War, I found Wilde a bit bland and predictable (his American-Irish heritage trying too hard to make him an outsider) and his boxing expertise tried too hard to make him an action hero. Christmas season has come and Rory Clements has brought me again several hours of joy reading Corpus, the first book of his new saga.

Taking the reader from the opening scene in Germany, where Nancy Hereward, a left-wing idealist and daughter of a Nazi sympathiser, is trying to help the Jewish scientist escape, through her subsequent death, Clements establishes his novel as a murder mystery on a grand scale, for then, the parents of Nancy’s friend Margot, who are also friends of fascist Germany, are brutally murdered. In a great English house, a young woman offers herself to one of the most powerful and influential figures in the land - but this is no ordinary seduction.
