Imperial Spy
Imperial Spy (Published by Simon & Schuster) is the first book in the Imperial Series and has proved a hit in the book shops.
Femke, a gifted and resourceful young spy, is entrusted with a vital foreign mission by the Emperor. Her adversary, Shalidar, frames Femke with responsibility for two murders while she is visiting their neighbouring court.
Femke is isolated in an alien country, being pursued both by her enemies and by the authorities. Only her side-kick, Reynik, a young military trainee, can help.
Together, they must outwit the evil assassin Shalidar and prove Femke’s innocence so they can complete the imperial mission. This is the first in a new series.

All attempts to locate the assassins’ headquarters have failed and Femke is already known to the assassins. So Reynik, the young legionnaire, must penetrate their inner circle to discover the Guild’s secrets.

Imperial Traitor
The third and final book in the Imperial Series, published by Simon & Schuster in September 2007.
When Emperor Surabar is assassinated, Shalidar makes plans to put Lord Tremarle on the throne. Other lords have designs on the Mantle, however, and in the absence of clear authority the city descends into anarchy.
Femke and Reynik go into hiding with the Emperor designate, Lord Kempten. But for Kempten to assume the throne, he must first remove the threat posed by the Guild of Assassins.
The power of the Guild resides in the bonding stone – a stone which is kept in the heavily-guarded Guild headquarters, deep beneath the Imperial Palace.
Femke still has allies, but she must find a way to get them into the Guild headquarters before it’s too late.
