Caib's Knuckle will show the way.
1860: a version of Britain where colonialism didn't happen. Here, three distinct species of human live in harmony, until a scapegoat is needed to further the ambitions of greedy factions.
It falls to valet Edwin Lauder and his master, the young aristocrat James Melaku, to expose the plot and find a different way.
Failure at best means the maintenance of a cruel status quo, at worst, annihilation of one species and generations of oppression for the other two.
Set in a mid-Victorian time recognisable but subtly different (eg., York, and not London, is the capital city of the land called Engel) the author's characters interact with various historical personalities along their journey. The reader is given an alternative history of Britain, and also a glimpse of how the Americas may have developed had the indigenous people never been subdued.
While events of national existential importance play out, Edwin from a poor family, and James of noble stock, must also navigate their relationship which mirrors unfolding events.
