James Douglas is a pen name for Douglas Jackson, who also writes historical fiction under his own name. The Jamie Saintclaire series takes a different direction — fast-moving conspiracy thrillers where an art recovery expert keeps stumbling into mysteries tied to history’s darkest chapters.

The first book, The Doomsday Testament, sets the template: Saintclaire finds his grandfather’s hidden wartime diary, which leads him across Europe in pursuit of a Nazi-era secret. Each subsequent book follows a similar structure, with a new artifact or legend driving the plot. The four books were published between 2011 and 2014 and work well for readers who enjoy historical adventure in the vein of Dan Brown or James Rollins.
