The Extraordinary Life and Love of Reginald Fubsteris a historical fiction about an Englishman born in India and the woman he loves. After losing his mother to illness, his father to WWI, and the love of his life to slavery, Reginald must contend with captivity, his boyhood rival, and his self-doubt to find her. When Reginald's father sends him to London to receive an education, he stays with a relative and a beautiful young heiress named Natalie. Reginald falls in love with her, but must attend a military academy where he's mistreated. Meanwhile, his great uncle is murdered, a will forged, and Natalie whisked away to steal her fortune. Reginald vows to follow Natalie to India. En route, he's captured in Aqaba. Though he makes a daring escape across Sinai, finding Natalie seems impossible. Reginald is forced to take a commission as an ensign and finds himself on the remote and dangerous Northwest Frontier, embroiled in Britain's Third Afghan War.
