Set in 1585 at the court of Elizabeth 1 Nicholas Holt, spy and the younger brother of the Earl of Blackwell, is given the task of discovering the murderer of one of the Queen's ladies-in-waiting. But this is just the start.
A very enjoyable well-written mystery and the story is certainly helped by its likeable characters. A good solid start to what I presume will be a series. Setting the scene of Elizabethan England well.

1586. Nicholas Holt, younger brother of Robert, Earl of Blackwell, and spy for Sir Francis Walsingham, is on the trail of a Spanish agent. He follows del Toro to Oxford. But in the process while travelling with an old neighbour they are ambushed. Meanwhile back in London, another of Walsingham's spys is killed. But events start to accelerate, and who's pawn is Holt.
I enjoyed this well-written historical mystery which can easily be read as a standalone story. The plots takes many turns to keep me guessing who is on the side of right, if there is one. The secondary characters are well-developed and so add to the story.

Look the cover and title might make you believe this is some sort of Romance Novel. It isn't but it is a love story. Well researched and written, it is also a fairly compelling read. The thing that would have improved my experience with the book, was a better understanding of Augustine's life. This isn't a book about Augustine, but who he was is a part of the core of this love story. So if I had brought more background to the story I feel like I would have gained more from the story. Still well worth the read.… (plus d'informations)
