About this listen

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...

A great historical mystery

I’ve listened to every single one of S W Perrys books and I have to say it is hard to have a favourite as they are all brilliantly written and narrated in equal
Measure.
I’m looking forward to the finding out what Nicholas and Bianca have in store for their next “adventure”. Roll on the next book.

Not disappointed

Generally good, but the narrator has a cadence and intonation that can be a bit irritating, it makes the main character seem a bit whiny or patronising at times.

A good story, but a little unbelievable

Fast paced and a good page turner this book is a triumph. I am hooked on this series of historical novels.

Superb

Enjoyed both the story and narration stayed up most of the night because I had to know Nicholas was safe

Looking forward to the next adventure already

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Plot is somewhat creaky and the denouement is poor. Having said that the sense of being amongst it all is very strong and it’s nice to see a lot of characters vom together from previous books in the series.

Weakest of them in my opinion
