Golden Rose: and Other Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780956581280)

Brilliant Oxford PhD candidate in anthropology, Robert Walters, accepts an assignment to catalogue the 9th Duke of Dingley's collection of ethnic artefacts in decaying Montagu Hall. But the brutal murder of the 8th duke, mutilated sheep scattered about the grounds, and sudden death of the duke's beautiful young bride during their recent South American honeymoon, suggest all is not well at Montagu Hall.

When an unexplained package arrives by hansom cab in the middle of the night, Robert's suspicions grow, and a game of cat and mouse begins. A frightful nocturnal visitor and mysterious lakeside lady nudge Robert towards an explanation that's bordering on the fantastical. Yet his theory is but a fragment of the appalling truth...

Presented with evidence that challenges every facet of his Christian upbringing-while tempted with rewards beyond earthly imagination-which path will Robert choose?

And who exactly is the cat...and who is the mouse?

In addition to the novella Golden Rose, this edition also includes two short stories by Ben: You only Die Twice and Old Dan and the Key.
