Lord Simon Stanley has fallen far from the privilege of his birth. Haunted by addiction and confined within the walls of St. Mary of Bethlehem—already known to Londoners as Bedlam—he finds himself among those society would rather forget.

​

Outside its walls, Tobias Good, Simon's steward, is drawn into a murder investigation that could cost him far more than his freedom. As suspicion spreads through a London unsettled by rebellion, religious division, and the uncertain reign of Queen Mary I, the lives of Simon, Tobias, cartographer's daughter Winnie Wryght, and the enigmatic Astrolabe become increasingly entangled.

​

Set against the streets, households, taverns, and hidden corners of Tudor London, Bedlam: The Case of Lord Simon is a historical novel of mystery, loyalty, addiction, identity, and redemption—and of the people who refuse to abandon those the world has cast aside.

​

The first novel in the Bedlam Series.
