Summary

London, 1555. Queen Mary is newly married to Philip II of Spain - and not everyone is happy about the alliance. The kingdom is divided between those loyal to Catholic Mary and those who support her half sister, Lady Elizabeth.

Former cutpurse turned paid assassin Jack Blackjack has more immediate matters to worry about. Having been ordered to kill a man, he determines to save him instead. But Jack defies his spymaster at his peril...and even the best laid plans can sometimes go awry.

When it appears that Jack has killed the wrong man, he reluctantly finds himself drawn into affairs of state, making new enemies wherever he turns. Can he survive long enough to put matters right?

Good historical story

I really enjoy these books, with the interesting Tudor history. Well read, and a gripping mystery.

Good fun

I love an antihero and Jack is about as unheroic, inept and clumsy as they come. This series is always good fun and Peter Noble brings a narration that is more than just a reading.
