O książce
'DRAMATIC AND COLOURFUL' SUNDAY TIMES 'MY FAVOURITE HISTORICAL CRIME SERIES' S. G. MacLEAN England, 1593: Five years on from the Armada and Elizabeth's kingdom seems secure. But there is always a plot afoot…
Robert Cecil, the Queen's spymaster, needs Nicholas Shelby – reluctant spy and maverick physician – to embark on an undercover mission once again. One that he can't refuse, if he wants to keep Bianca Merton safe.
Crossing the seas to Marrakesh in search of a missing informer, Nicholas hunts the dingy back alleys and dazzling palaces for the truth. But his search reveals a deadly conspiracy, one far more difficult to survive than he'd ever imagined.
And back in London the plague has returned, ravaging the streets and threatening everything he holds most dear… ________________________ Praise for The Jackdaw Mysteries, a CWA Dagger and HWA Crown finalist series 'S. W. Perry is one of the best'
