THE SECOND INSTALMENT IN THE JOHN DEE PAPERS The acclaimed second
instalment of The John Dee Papers. Tudor intrigue, murder and the
dark arts - brooding superstition leaves John Dee isolated in the
land of his father... 'Chills, thrills and satisfies. A fabulous
read.' - Huffington Post At the end of the sunless summer of 1560,
black rumour shrouds the death of the one woman who stands between
Lord Robert Dudley and marriage to the young Queen Elizabeth. Did
Dudley's wife, Amy, die from an accidental fall in a deserted
house, or was it murder? Even Dr John Dee, astrologer royal,
adviser on the Hidden and one of Dudley's oldest friends, is
uncertain. Then a rash promise to the Queen sends him to his
family's old home on the Welsh Border in pursuit of the Wigmore
Shewstone, a crystal credited with supernatural properties. With
John Dee goes Robert Dudley, considered the most hated man in
England. They travel with a London judge sent to try a sinister
Welsh brigand with a legacy dating back to the Battle of Brynglas.
After the battle, many of the English bodies were, according to
legend, obscenely mutilated. Now, on the same haunted hill, another
dead man has been found, similarly slashed. Devious politics,
small-town corruption, twisted religion and a brooding superstition
leave John Dee isolated in the land of his father. The previous
book in the bestselling The John Dee Papers is The Bones of Avalon.
