Description
Electric tensions simmer beneath the streets of London in 1664. Thomas Chaloner, spy to the Lord Chancellor, senses an undercurrent of restlessness among the city's inhabitants. Rumors swirl in the coffee houses, fueled by discontent with new laws governing church attendance and a growing disdain for the court. As Chaloner investigates the murder of infamous church-smasher Dick Culmer on London Bridge, he uncovers a web of puritan conspirators. His pursuit takes him to the opulent settings of Somerset House and White Hall, where he must navigate treacherous alliances and rivalries to prevent a catastrophic rebellion from unfolding. With time running out, Chaloner is determined to thwart the plotters' plans, even as they are equally resolute in their efforts to keep his true intentions hidden.
