Once again, Gregory brings to bear her extraordinary ability to
paint a period picture of London in all its grimness and
grittiness. Hats off to the lady! - Daily Mail
--------------------------- The ninth adventure for Chaloner sees
the Restoration London spy foil a conspiracy In 1665 England is
facing war with the Dutch and the capital is awash with rumours of
conspiracy and sedition. As an experienced investigator, Thomas
Chaloner knows that there are very few grains of truth in the
shifting sands of the rumour-mill, but the murder of Paul Ferine, a
Groom of the Robes, in a brothel favoured by the elite of the
Palace of White Hall makes him scent a whiff of genuine treason. As
well as investigating the murder, Chaloner is charged with tracking
down the leaders of a fanatical sect known as the Fifth
Monarchists. As he comes to know more about the group and their
meetings on High Holborn, he discovers a puzzling number of
connections - to both Ferine's murder and those involved with the
defence of the realm. Connections that he must disentangle before
it is too late to save the country . . .
