Traitor by Rory Clements
'A master of the wartime spy thriller' Financial Times The fourth book in the iconic John Shakespeare series, beloved by thousands of readers, from true master of historical fiction, Rory Clements. ------------------------------------------------------- 'Sixteenth-century London comes alive in all its tawdriness' Daily Mail 'Beautifully done . . . alive and tremendously engrossing' Daily Telegraph 'Plot and dialogue that hums with Elizabethan slang, profanity and wit' The Times 'Enjoyable, bloody and brutish' Guardian ------------------------------------------------------- The Elizabethan navy has a secret weapon: an optical instrument so powerful it gives England unassailable superiority at sea. Spain will stop at nothing to steal it and seize the two men who understand its secrets - its operative William Ivory, known as the 'Queen's Eye', and its inventor, the maverick magician Dr Dee. With a second Armada threatened, intelligencer John Shakespeare is sent north to escort Dr Dee to safety. But his mission is far from straightforward. While Shakespeare attempts to untangle a plot that points to treachery at the very highest reaches of government, he also faces serious accusations far closer to home. With so much at stake, must he choose between family and his duty to Queen and country? Moving from the Catholic heartlands of Lancashire to a vagabond camp in the heart of England, and from the deck of Admiral Frobisher's flagship to the secret meetings of Elizabeth's closest associates, Traitor is an intriguing and compelling novel from award-winning writer Rory Clements. ------------------------------------------------------- Readers adore Martyr and the John Shakespeare series . . . 'If you love C.J. Sansom, you'll love this' 'Once again Rory Clements has delivered an excellent fast paced Elizabethan mystery' 'An absolutely delightful Elizabethan mystery' 'If you enjoy S.J. Parris, you need to try this' 'Rory Clements has struck gold with John Shakespeare'| Author | Rory Clements |
