Description
Jack Blackjack wakes up next to a dead body in a tavern's yard with a sore head. The discovery in the dead man's purse makes his day even worse, as it reveals why several people are after him - including the Lord Chancellor and an enigmatic figure known only as Henry. The situation is complicated by the approaching rebel army, marching on London to remove Queen Mary from her throne and install Lady Jane Grey instead. With the city effectively cut off, Jack must try to unravel the mystery of the murder and his own entanglement in it. As the death toll mounts and the rebel army draws closer, Jack Blackjack's situation becomes increasingly precarious. Can he work out who killed the man in the yard and why before it's too late?
