Description
The Heresy of Dr Dee by Phil Rickman is set against the dark and treacherous backdrop of 16th-century England. A mysterious death at court sets off a chain of events that draws Dr John Dee into a world of intrigue, murder, and supernatural mystery. As the sunless summer of 1560 wears on, black rumor surrounds the death of Amy Dudley, wife of Lord Robert Dudley and potential bride to Queen Elizabeth. Was her death an accident or murder? The truth is shrouded in secrecy, but one thing is certain: Dr John Dee must uncover it. His search for answers takes him to his family's old home on the Welsh Border, where he becomes embroiled in a sinister plot involving a mysterious crystal and a dark legacy from the Battle of Brynglas. In this gripping historical mystery, Rickman masterfully weaves together devious politics, small-town corruption, twisted religion, and a brooding superstition to create a tale that is as unsettling as it is compelling.
