Description
Autumn 1583. Loyalty is bought with blood under Queen Elizabeth's rule. An astrological phenomenon heralds the dawn of a new age and the Queen's throne is in peril. As Mary Stuart's supporters scheme to usurp the rightful monarch, a young maid of honour is murdered, occult symbols carved into her flesh. The Queen's spymaster calls on maverick agent Giordano Bruno to infiltrate the plotters and secure evidence that will condemn them to death. But Bruno's enemies are cunning, and his identity could be exposed at any moment. The proof he seeks is within his grasp, but the young woman's murder may point to a sinister truth. A gripping tale of intrigue, mystery, and historical detail, set against the backdrop of Queen Elizabeth's reign.
