Description
Richard Fitzwarren is an anti-hero with a dubious past and questionable morals, yet unswerving loyalties. His life is turned upside down when his displaced bastard brother, Jack, seeks to join him. Impulsive and hot-headed, Jack's attempts to gain his brother's acceptance often end badly. The brothers are brought head to head when Richard tries to foil a plot against Elizabeth I. As Tudor England erupts following the death of Edward VI, a young spy must protect his queen. England is torn apart by religious conflict, with power shifting precariously between Catholics and Protestants. Loyalty, friendship, and brotherly love are tested as the divide between Catholic Mary and Elizabeth's Protestant daughter grows deeper. Richard Fitzwarren, caught in the middle of a cruel family feud, must make his own way in the world while remaining loyal to the princess he has known since childhood. International bestselling author Sam Burnell takes readers deep into the treacherous world of powerful monarchs, intrigue, murder, and treason. With this magnificent new epic, A Queen's Spy, Burnell masterfully combines murder, mystery, and intrigue.
