The second instalment in this stunning historical-thriller trilogy. The year is 1603. Alice Fletchers brother, Richard, has returned from beyond the grave, but he has lost his memory. Alice, Richard and Tom Cavendish are called upon to foil a Catholic plot against the new king, James I, involving the abduction of the most famous playwright in the land William Shakespeare. Packed with a heady Elizabethan atmosphere of political scheming, romance and murder. The swiftly paced, suspenseful plot will keep young readers on the edge of their seats while giving them an insight into the history of Shakespeares England.
A published author of over eighty books, mainly for children and young adults, Alex lives in Southgate, North London, with his wife and two children.
