about the books
Join Ehud in his adventures and battles for survival in those far-off days of pharaohs in Egypt and the mines of King Solomon.
In this first volume of the Ehud papers, Ehud, armed only with sharp wits, sharp elbows and a sure skill with the leather sling, confronts the freewheeling and dangerous world of God-mad generals, cynical priests, bitter tribal hatreds and purring scheming women in the shadow of the great walls of Jericho.
From blood baths to scented bosoms, goat herd to chariot boy, from duelling in the sun to playing the secret agent, Ehud is involved in a succession of lucky escapes, trickery, amours and desperate fights to the finish. And what’s more he – as you will! – seems to enjoy every minute of it!


Call him Babyface at your peril!
Ehud may be short, snub-nosed and fresh-faced but don’t underestimate him. Under those black curls there’s a sharp fighter and a shrewd survivor.
Jericho has fallen to Joshua and his Israelite army. Amid the looting and the slaughter of the survivors, the hunt is on for the great golden helmet of Baal. The helmet must be found – and destroyed – or the invasion of the rich Promised Land will fail.
In this second book of the series, Ehud is, as usual, in the thick of it.
The challenges come at him fast and furious. Whether it’s confronting a charging chariot single-handedly, sweet- talking a drug-crazed mountain king, or escaping the claws of a determined devil woman, Ehud is up to it. With his deft skills, smooth talking, and sheer brass he turns near disaster into triumph.
But is finding the golden helmet of Baal a challenge too far? When the best laid plans go astray no one has the answers, and those who survive are left standing numb and shivering in fear. All except Ehud.










Fights rough, fights clever and, above all, gets in first!
Whether you like Ehud or not he is a chap to have at your side in a scrap.
General Joshua has taken Jericho but now, as his ragtag army advances into the rich “Promised Land,” they are confronted by the military might of Canaan. And, as if all those chariots, armoured infantry and archers are not enough to contend with, they must face the god of their Enemies, the terrible Baal and his devil-women worshippers, the Daughters of Baal, who feed the flaming oven of his belly with human victims.
Here, in the third book of the series, Ehud is, as usual, in the thick of it, needing all the swagger, skill, and bluff he can muster to triumph over the hazards which face him; from the curse of being eaten by maggots, the stab of a poisoned dagger, the bite of a rabid dog, to the touch of a leper.
Most dangerous of all, and Ehud’s deadliest enemy, is Eve. A Daughter of Baal, and blinded in one eye by Ehud, she is utterly dedicated to his slow and very painful death.
