1592. England and Spain are at war, yet there is peril at home, too.
The death of her trusted spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham has left Queen Elizabeth vulnerable. Conspiracies multiply.
The quiet life of John Shakespeare is shattered by a summons from the deadly young statesman Robert Cecil, insisting Shakespeare re-enter government service. His mission: to find vital papers, now in the possession of the Earl of Essex.
Essex is the brightest star in the firmament, a man of ambition. He woos the Queen, thirty-three years his senior, as if she were a girl his age.
When Shakespeare infiltrates this dissolute world he discovers not only that the Queen herself is in danger - but that he and his family are also targets. Shakespeare must face implacable forces who believe themselves above the law: men and women who kill without compunction.
But in a world of shifting allegiances, just how far he can trust Robert Cecil, his devious new master?
