Lord Darcy Investigates: Randall Garrett

Lord Darcy dwells in an alternate world - the history of which diverged from our reality during the reign of King Richard the Lionheart - in which King John never reigned and most of western Europe and the Americas are united in an Angevin Empire whose continental possessions were never lost by that king. Magic-based technology replaces science. Lord Darcy serves the king of a prosperous Empire - its citizens are contented, its rulers are just, its allies staunch and loyal. But there are yet enemies - and when they arise it's time for Lord Darcy, Chief Investigator for the Duke of Normandy, and his sorcerous assistant Sean O'Lochlainn to put their occult skills and canny powers of deduction to use in defence of the King's Justice. This volume contains four stories: A Matter of Gravity; The Ipswich Phial; The Sixteen Keys and The Napoli Express.
