Introducing Elizabethan cutpurse and adventurer Jack Blackjack in
the first of a brand-new historical mystery series January, 1554.
Light-fingered Jack Blackjack knows he's not going to have a good
day when he wakes with a sore head next to a dead body in a
tavern's yard. That would be bad enough - but when he discovers
what's in the dead man's purse, the one he'd stolen, his day is set
to get much worse. The purse explains why the mysterious man with
the broad-brimmed hat wants to catch him. But so does the Lord
Chancellor, as does the enigmatic Henry. In fact, almost everyone
seems to be after Jack Blackjack. If it weren't for the rebel army
marching on London determined to remove Queen Mary from her throne
and install Lady Jane Grey in her place, Jack could leave the city
- but with the bridge blocked and every gate manned, there's no
escape. Instead he must try to work out who killed the man in the
yard, and why. But it won't be easy as the rebel army comes ever
closer and the death toll mounts .
