Description

London is on the brink of excess and corruption, as the Court of Charles II revels in the aftermath of the plague. In the midst of this debauchery, a grand ball is planned in honour of a long-dead Pope, and the markets are abuzz with rumours of war and disaster. Mysterious killings have taken place, all linked to the Worshipful Company of Poulters, a group struggling to keep up with London's egg demands. Thomas Chaloner is tasked with investigating, but as he delves deeper, he uncovers a complex web of conspiracy, outlandish claims, and brazen killings. With the ball's date looming closer, Chaloner fears a credible threat to the throne, and time is running out to prevent history from repeating itself. As the city teeters on the edge of chaos, Chaloner must navigate the treacherous landscape of London's politics and society. The lines between reality and superstition are blurred, and the stakes are higher than ever. With the fate of the kingdom hanging in the balance, Chaloner must use all his skills to unravel the mystery before it's too late. In this gripping historical mystery, Susanna Gregory masterfully weaves together the threads of conspiracy, politics, and suspense, creating a thrilling tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
