Publication Order of Dr. Thomas Silkstone Books

Medical records and psychological evaluations reflected the mental deficiencies of Hitler and could be used for his demise if the right hands get the information. Emerging from his home into the streets of Oxfordshire, Joseph Makepeace seems to be suffering from convulsions, as his eyes appear open wide, as if he’s witnessed an evil terror. The local residents though are more suspicious and believe him to be possessed by the devil itself, having entered his soul and causing him to act in such a manor. Then his son and daughter are found to have had their heads bashed in with a shovel, as they lie murdered, a discovery which appears to seal the fate of Joseph as the culprit for many. Will Dr. Thomas Silkstone be able to get to the truth and past the superstition? Can he find the real culprit before it’s too late? What will become of them all as they feel the burn of the devil’s breath? A bold, strong story and one that drew me in from the start. It is emotional, unique, fast paced, intriguing, engrossing and a book I just couldn't put down!’ NetGalley reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wouldn’t you love to be able to see the notes the psychiatrist made during his appointments with Adolf Hitler?
