In Search of Spice is an epic historical fantasy romance, set in a world similar to 12th century Europe. The Queen Rose is the first deep sea ship built in Harrhein, a country cut off from the rest of the world by snow and ice to the north and pirates to the east. In every other direction is endless ocean.
Captain Larroche is the veteran master of the carrack, charged with finding a new trade route. He wants to find the fabled land of Hind and proposes to sail over the edge of the world. No wonder he has trouble finding crew.
The young people he assembles, strengthened by a squad of frontier veteran Royal Pathfinders, are more than a match for known enemies.
How will they handle people of another colour, with strange habits, peculiar food, treacherous officials, different languages and customs that defy belief?
Will they escape the pirates? Will they find trading opportunities? Will they ever return?
What will happen to Harrhein during their absence?
This book takes place in a violent time, with violent scenes from battle and ordinary life, including murder, torture and rape
