Book #10 in the Second Son Chronicles takes you back to the beginning.
When 16th-century printers Henri and Bertrand Dubois find a stack of letters among their grandmother's memorabilia, they realize their lives are about to change, for in those missives is incontrovertible proof that the legend of the lost chronicles of King Alfred is no legend at all. Publishing those chronicles would be the coup of a lifetime, elevating not only the brothers' prestige among publishers in two kingdoms but also their position in society. But first, they have to find them.
Leaving Henri at home to run the business, Bertrand sets out on the quest. Where should he start, and who can he trust for help without exposing their plans? The skeptical scholar? The royal chamberlain? A mysterious stable master? Will the fact that the chronicles are believed to be a myth serve as protection or hindrance? And when a seemingly innocuous reference leads Bertrand to search for an even older chronicle, what will he find?

Pamela Taylor's "trip of a lifetime" may have been the one where she got to touch a 700-year-old book and examine the account rolls for the construction of a gothic cathedral. A self-professed history-geek, she finds the past offers rich sources of character, ambiance, and story that allows readers to escape into a world totally unlike their daily lives. "Weaving a narrative around gaps or exploring contradictions in the historical record is fertile ground for the novelist," she says. "And just as intriguing as imagining the lives of actual historical figures." Pamela shares her home with two Pembroke Welsh Corgis who frequently remind her that a dog walk is the best inspiration for that next chapter.
