Britfield & the Lost Crown
is a fast-paced adventure novel that transports the reader from the smoldering crags of Yorkshire, through the heart of England, and finally to the magnificent shores of Dover. Creating an interactive world of mystery and adventure, Britfield is about friendship, family, loyalty, and courage.
Escaping fromWeatherly Orphanage,
a place where learning is suppressed, and children are treated as labor, best friends Tom and Sarah outsmart the nasty owners Mr. and Mrs. Grievous, the seedy caretaker Mr. Speckle, and even the legendary watchdog Wind. Yet shortly before leaving, Tom discovers a clue that will change his life forever.
Relentlessly chased by the illustrious Detective Gowerstone, the two narrowly escape by commandeering a hot air balloon and flying over central England. Crashing at Oxford University, they receive the sympathy of Dr. Hainsworth, an esteemed professor who decides to help them safely get to London.
Forced to land the balloon at Windsor Castle, Hainsworth asks for help from former student and head butler Philip. After a white-knuckled chase through St. Paul’s Cathedral and the London underground, with Detective Gowerstone still in hot pursuit, Tom and Sarah are nearly out of time.

Meet The Characters
Tom, is age twelve, and has a wiry but muscular body. His eyes are deep blue and has brown hair. Like many of the other orphans, Tom doesn’t know anything about his parents, who they were or what had happened to them. But he hopes to find out someday.
Sarah Wallace, twelve, had arrived at Weatherly Orphanage from Edinburgh, Scotland. Coming from a wealthy family, she had led a privileged life before her parents died in a suspicious automobile accident. She doesn’t have any relatives, except for a greedy uncle who only wanted the money, so she was shipped around to a few places and finally ended up at Weatherly. She has long, sandy-blond hair, hypnotic hazel eyes and an infectious laugh. Sarah and Tom are best friends.
Detective Arthur Gowerstone is a legend. Although he travelled throughout Britain and Europe solving different criminal cases, his specialty is finding missing children and runaway orphans. Educated at Eton and Oxford, he had his choice of any profession, yet he had selected law enforcement: it was the pursuit, the chase, the task of figuring out his adversaries’ next move, outthinking them and finally capturing them. He loves the hunt. Gowerstone stands six feet tall with dark brown hair and an athletic build. He is brilliant, cool and unpredictable. He has never lost a case in his entire career, never failed to capture a villain or find a child. Never that is, except once. However, that had happened a decade ago, under circumstances that still haunt him. Detective Gowerstone is a portrait of refinement and elegance: fresh from Savile Row, he wears a perfectly fitted Gieves & Hawkes pinstriped suit, a crisp white Turnbull & Asser shirt, a light blue Thomas Pink tie and highly polished Church shoes. He also has a slight scent of Floris Number 89. He looks more like a movie star than a public servant.
Speckle, a new supervisor at Weatherly Orphanage, had arrived nine months ago. Over six feet tall with wavy grey hair, he had a deep, scratchy voice and a grip like a vice. He uses his height and snappy tone to as intimidation and a strict sense of order with the children at Weatherly. They fear him and he appears to always be around every corner.
Dr. Randolph Churchill Hainsworth III was a celebrity in the academic community, with doctorate degrees in physics, advanced sciences, mathematics and British literature (the fourth degree was one he earned, just for fun). He dresses in a crisp white shirt, burgundy vest and tweed jacket. His short, grey hair was neatly trimmed.
