Perfect for fans of Philippa Gregory and Jean Plaidy.

Samuel Atkins is deeply in love with Maria Eleanora, a beautiful young woman from the court of Queen Catherine.

But Atkins is a poor clerk, and Maria Eleanora a foreigner, so their love must remain a secret.

When an important judge is found murdered, Samuel Pepys' followers are suspected, and Atkins is arrested.

Suddenly, Maria Eleanora realises that to save her lover and discover the hideous truth behind the crime, she must thread her way through both the treacherous alleys of London and the murky and murderous politics of those seeking to destroy the king.
