Solving the murder will require the cunning and savvy possessed by only one man. Enter Nicholas Holt, younger brother of the Earl of Blackwell--spy, rake, and owner of the infamous Black Sheep tavern in the seedy district of Bankside. Nick quickly learns that working for the Queen is a mixed blessing. Elizabeth--salty-tongued, vain, and fiercely intelligent--can, with a glance, either reward Nick with a purse of gold or have his head forcibly removed. When a second lady-in-waiting is slain at Whitehall, the court once again reels with shock and dismay. On the trail of a diabolical killer, Nick and his faithful sidekick--an enormous Irish Wolfhound named Hector--are treading on treacherous ground, and only the killer's head on a platter can keep them in the Queen's good graces"--Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Elizabeth $b I, $c Queen of England, $d 1533-1603 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z England $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nobility $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Courts and courtiers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Spy stories. 651 0 $a London (England) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 7 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409034438.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722060602.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20200207010443.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191219010123.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20190423012133.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20190124010253.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181205012536.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=29AAF0DCCEAF11E898C63D7397128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
