Treason, heresy and revolt in Queen Elizabeth's England . . . The
year is 1600. With a dying queen on the throne, war raging on the
high seas and famine on the rise, England is on the brink of chaos.
And in London's dark alleyways, a conspiracy is brewing. In the
court's desperate bid to silence it, an innocent man is found
guilty - the father of Nicholas Shelby, physician and spy. As
Nicholas races against time to save his father, he and his wife
Bianca are drawn into the centre of a treacherous plot against the
queen. When one of Shakespeare's boy actors goes missing, and
Bianca discovers a disturbing painting that could be a clue, she
embarks on her own investigation. Meanwhile, as Nicholas comes
closer to unveiling the real conspirator, the men who wish to
silence him are multiplying. When he stumbles on a plan to
overthrow the state and replace it with a terrifying new order, he
may be forced to make a decision between his country and his heart
. . .
