Living amid the cultural flowering, religious strife, and political storms of Tudor England, Bess Ellyott is a hunted woman. She fled London after her husband was brutally murdered, and the murderer is still out there. When Bess's brother-in-law, a prosperous merchant, is himself found dead-- an apparent suicide-- Bess doesn't believe that for a moment. Town constable Christopher Harwoode will cross members of his own family to help Bess find the killer-- whose next target may very well be Queen Elizabeth I. -- adapted from jacket.
