review 1: Although I hadn't read the novel directly prior to this one, I thought this was a great story of court intrigue, dangerous betrayals, and treason. Taking place just as Elizabeth Tudor has taken the English throne, Brendan Prescott is sent on a mission to discover the truth behind one of her favorite ladies-in-waiting's disappearance. This mission sends him to a family home far from court, where secrets begin to reveal themselves… and no secret is more surprising than his finally discovery - one that sends him on a chase with the new queen fighting for his success and safety. In this novel, we great great glimpses of Robert Dudley (my personal favorite), and just a touch of romance that always adds to my enjoyment of a book. Overall, an enjoyable read and one that I would... more recommend.
review 2: I was up and down while reading this title. At times the vast amount of historical information was overwhelming, even for a History graduate. At other times the suspense was very fast paced and edge of my seat. This was a rollercoaster of sorts mainly due to the ebb and flow of the story, at times a bit slow and others a blazing page turner. As a whole, this is a massively researched and very well put together suspense tale revolving around everyone's favorite Tudor. Plausible, enjoyable, and a finely written story. less
