| What is Topcliffe' s interest in a housemaid, whose baby has been stolen? And where do two fugitive Jesuit priests fit into the puzzle, one happy to die for God, the other to kill for Him? From the splendour and intrigue of the royal court, to the sleek warships of Her Majesty' s Navy and the teeming brothels of Southwark, Shakespeare soon learns that nothing is as it seems. . . With Drake on land fitting out his ships, he is frighteningly vulnerable. Within days the axe could fall on the neck of Mary Queen of Scots, and Spain is already gathering a battle fleet to avenge her. But why is Shakespeare shadowed at every turn by the brutal Richard Topcliffe, the blood-drenched priest-hunter who claims intimacy with Queen Elizabeth herself? If he dies, England will be open to invasion. When a high-born young woman is found mutilated and murdered at an illicit printing house, it is political gunpowder - and he has no option but to investigate. Tensions in Elizabeth I' s government are at breaking point. At the eye of the storm is John Shakespeare, chief intelligencer in the secret service of Sir Francis Walsingham. When an intercept reveals a plot to assassinate England' s ' sea dragon' , Francis Drake, Shakespeare is ordered to protect him. In a London rife with rumour, Shakespeare must decide which leads to follow, which to ignore. England is close to war.
