The Devil Returns Twice as Deadly is a historic novel by Fred Smith.
It tells the tale of Robert Williams who is a County Bailiff.
He sees what he believes to be a chance to earn some extra, easy money.
But he could have had no understanding of the breathtaking and dangerous series of events that this engenders.
There's a ferryman who seems to have a problem, but what problem, exactly? Who, or rather, what was he? Man or something else?
Also there is a violent. troubled and bothersome landowner, a magistrate who is nursing a grievance that is ages old and what of Mary, the love of Robert's life? Has he inadvertently brought danger of an untimely end to her and even her entire family?
Can he save Mary and her family? Can he save himself?
This book is an ideal Christmas gift for anyone who likes a rip roaring adventurous novel, set in the olden days.
It is published in hardback by the Book Guild at £12.99.
It is, of course, available via the That's Books and Entertainment bookshop which is to be found to the right hand side of this review.
