Description
Three gripping novellas from S. J. Parris, the No.1 Sunday Times bestseller. In The Secret Dead Summer, a girl's body is found in a Neapolitan monastery, and novice monk Giordano Bruno is determined to uncover the truth. His investigation could deliver him into the hands of the Inquisition. The Academy of Secrets Autumn 1568 brings an invitation from a secret society of philosophers, but keeping their heretical secrets soon becomes a matter of life or death. A Christmas Requiem Winter 1569 summons Giordano Bruno by the Pope, who is intrigued by his talent for memory games, but Rome is a den of iniquity, and Bruno will be lucky to escape alive. These three novellas offer a glimpse into the younger years of Giordano Bruno, a 16th-century heretic and spy. Beautifully written and full of energy and excitement, they are a worthwhile read for fans of historical fiction and espionage.
