The next brilliant, sweeping historical novel from S W Perry, immaculately researched and beautifully written. Perfect for fans of C. J. Sanson, S. G. Maclean and Rory Clements

Treason, heresy and revolt in Queen Elizabeth's England . . .

The year is 1600. With a dying queen on the throne, war raging on the high seas and famine on the rise, England is on the brink of chaos. And in London's dark alleyways, a conspiracy is brewing. In the court's desperate bid to silence it, an innocent man is found guilty - the father of Nicholas Shelby, physician and spy. As Nicholas races against time to save his father, he and his wife Bianca are drawn into the centre of a treacherous plot against the queen.

When one of Shakespeare's boy actors goes missing, and Bianca discovers a disturbing painting that could be a clue, she embarks on her own investigation. Meanwhile, as Nicholas comes closer to unveiling the real conspirator, the men who wish to silence him are multiplying. When he stumbles on a plan to overthrow the state and replace it with a terrifying new order, he may be forced to make a decision between his country and his heart . . .

Industry Reviews

'The third in Perry's series is as dramatic and colourful as the previous two.' - The Sunday Times
'An absolute helter of a read and another fabulous addition to the Jackdaw Mysteries series ... I just gobbled up the pages as the story fairly roars along battling spies and pirates on route ... S. W. Perry ensures the sights, smells and sounds of London and Morocco entered my very being. I love this series.' - Liz Robinson, LoveReading, Picks of the month

'The writing is of such a quality, the characters so engaging and the setting so persuasive that, only two books in, S.W. Perry's ingeniously plotted novels have become my favourite historical crime series.' - S. G. Maclean on The Serpent's Mark

'A satisfyingly convoluted plot.' - Sunday Times on The Serpent's Mark

'No-one is better than S. W. Perry at leading us through the squalid streets of London in the sixteenth century.' - Andrew Swanston on The Serpent's Mark
