The Apprentice Highwayman

"Could you look into the eyes of a man and pull your trigger and kill him stone dead?"

Will hates his job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But as an orphan in eighteenth-century York, he doesn't have much choice - until he find out that one of his customers is a highwayman.

Joining the robber gang brings wealth, new friends and adventure - everything a boy could dream of. But when people he cares about start getting hurt, Will discovers that it is easier to enter a life of crime than to leave it.

He got into it for the money. Can he get out with his life?



"Thoroughly enjoyable from cover to cover. It was so gripping, I read it at one sitting."
