London swelters in a heatwave in the summer of 1664, & in the corridors of power the temperature is equally high as an outbreak of war with the Dutch threatens to become a reality. In the dilapidated surroundings of Savoy Hospital, a delegation from the Netherlands has gathered for a final attempt to secure peace between the two nations. Thomas Chaloner, active in Holland during Cromwell's time, knows many of the delegates, including the sister of his late wife. Then the body of his former brother-in-law is found in the Thames. Chaloner discovers that the dead man has left enigmatic clues pointing to a motive for his murder. Was he involved in a plot to steal the crown jewels, or did he fall foul of one of the many people in London, who are determined that the peace talks will fail? ...

The war declared by the Boers on 11th October 1899 gave the British, as Kipling said 'no end of a lesson'. It proved to be the longest, the costliest, the bloodiest & the most humiliating campaign that Britain fought between 1815 & 1914. Thomas Pakenham has written the first full-scale history of the war since 1910. His narrative is based on first hand & largely unpublished sources ranging from the private papers of the leading protagonists to the recollections of survivors from both sides.
