1603. Former ship's surgeon Gabriel Taverner is attempting to
re-establish himself as a country physician in rural Devon. But
it's not easy to gain the locals' trust, and a series of disturbing
incidents, increasing in menace and intensity, convinces him that
at least one person does not welcome his presence. Called out to
examine a partially decomposed body found beside the river, Gabriel
discovers that he has a personal connection to the dead man.
Teaming up with Coroner Theophilus Davey to find out how the man
died, Gabriel uncovers some darker aspects of the lucrative silk
trade which operates from nearby Plymouth. The more he finds out,
the more frighteningly apparent it becomes that the people closest
to him have been keeping dangerous secrets.
