Poole of Honour

Description

London, 1965. The city is swinging, the world is shifting, and Daniel Poole is a rising criminal barrister with everything to prove – to the courts, to his father, and to himself.

But Daniel is carrying a secret that could shatter the life he has so carefully built. As society begins to question the rules it once held sacred, he is forced to decide what he stands for – and what he is willing to risk in order to belong.

Set against a backdrop of cultural upheaval and political change, Poole of Honour is a tense, character-driven historical novel exploring ambition, identity, and the cost of silence, as the next generation of the Poole family confronts a world on the brink of transformation.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:

•          Character-led historical fiction with strong emotional stakes

•          Stories of identity, self-discovery and the cost of silence

•          1960s London and the social upheaval of the swinging sixties

•          Family sagas that span generations

Readers of Amor Towles, Patrick Gale and Sarah Waters will find the same emotional depth, rich historical detail and a story that keeps the pages turning.

Book Two of The Poole Legacy – a historical trilogy following three generations of one family across a century of change. Each novel stands alone, while building a larger story of choices and their consequences.

Also available: Poole of Light (Book One), Poole of Eternity (Book Three – 2027) and Bright Light, a companion short story.
