Everyday Gourmet

What do I do with leftover mascarpone? How can I use the last of my pesto? Can I use quark like cottage cheese? How else can I use hoisin sauce other than in stir-fries?

The Solomon Legacy

A novel by William G. Mitchell

 

Ireland. The hunt is on. The prize — a fortune in Nazi plunder. But are the hunters prepared to pay the ultimate price?

 

Retired Major Willard 'Fergus' Fergusson is sure this will be his most successful campaign. But has he underestimated the deadly forces arrayed against his unlikely band of treasure hunters?

 

Jason Pearse is the victim of mistaken identity, a mistake that may cost him his life. Paddy Doyle and Josh O’Connell answered the call from Fergus, their old commanding officer, unaware of the true dangers. For Josh’s granddaughter Kate, family loyalty could prove fatal. And for Bethany Benjamin the prize is worth any sacrifice.

 

Now they are caught up in a lethal game where the only rules are no rules. And on the rugged windswept Irish coast stands the mansion — inviting and deadly.
