Description
London, 1593. A city on edge. Under threat from plague and war, strangers are unwelcome, suspicion is wholesale, severed heads grin from the spikes on Tower Bridge. Playwright, poet and spy, Christopher Marlowe walks the city's mean streets with just three days to find the murderous Tamburlaine, a killer escaped from the pages of his most violent play. The search for justice becomes a desperate bid for survival in this searing adventure that remains a taunting mystery to this day. Tamburlaine Must Die is a gripping tale of one man's defiance against both God and the state, leaving behind only questions about the true nature of evil and the power of art to shape our understanding of it.
