More Description The new historical thriller featuring Giordano Bruno - heretic, philosopher, and spy - which finds Bruno going undercover to prevent an assassination plot on Queen Elizabeth.
England, 1586. A treasonous conspiracy . . .
Giordano Bruno, a heretic turned spy, arrives in England with shocking information for spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham. A band of Catholic Englishmen are plotting to kill Queen Elizabeth and spring Mary Queen of Scots from prison to take the English throne in her place.
A deadly trap . . .
Bruno is surprised to find that Walsingham is aware of the plot - led by the young, wealthy noble Anthony Babington - and is allowing it to progress. He hopes that Mary will put her support in writing - and condemn herself to a traitor's death.
A queen in mortal danger . . .
Bruno is tasked with going undercover to join the conspirators. Can he stop them before he is exposed? Either way a queen will die; Bruno must make sure it is the right one.
