The kingdom teeters on a knife edge, and one man would throw it
into chaos...Autumn, 1379. The power of the crown is invested in
John of Gaunt, and the kingdom is seething with discontent. The
French are attacking the southern ports and the peasants are
planning a revolt organised by a mysterious leader who proclaims
himself as 'IRA DEI', the anger of God. When Gaunt's plans to win
over the merchant princes of London are plunged into chaos by a
series of bloody murders, he turns to Sir John Cranston to bring
the assassin to book and to recover a king's ransom in gold which
has disappeared. Cranston naturally calls on his ally Brother
Athelstan. London is a hotbed of intrigue and they find it
difficult to distinguish between friend and foe. They must face
deadly threats not just from the powerful elite, but from the seedy
underworld of medieval London. The fourth instalment in the
gripping historical mystery series, perfect for fans of C. J.
Sansom, S. J. Parris and Susanna Gregory.
