Rosamond vows to do all she can to prove Lina's innocence, but when it transpires Lina was being forced into a marriage against her will and was instead besotted by her fiance's charming yet unscrupulous nephew, her motives for murder seem overwhelming. <p/>In desperation, Rosamond seeks out the help of the Queen's spymaster himself, Sir Francis Walsingham - but when she overhears a conversation at the French Embassy, it seems Lina's plight is irrelevant in the face of potential treason. Rosamond must do all she can to save her friend - and keep herself and her family safe from a desperate killer.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A genuinely gripping mystery, an appealing protagonist, and an eye-opening look at London life during the Renaissance-- "Booklist"<br><br>Evocative period detail and the warmth of Rosamund's byplay with Rob make for a satisfying read"-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>I recommend this book to anyone interested in historical mysteries set in the Tudor era.--L Jacks, reviewer<br>
