Publisher's summary

"Gritty Historical fiction that never disappoints," (Northern Fiction Review)

Powerful characters and a story line that boils over with energy make this series an experience not to be missed. Narrator Nathaniel Williams incredible use of voice and timing allows him to present a wide and vivid cast of characters and bring to life the fortunes of these two complex brothers.

Richard and Jack finally return from Europe to a troubled England. Will they manage to complete the task they have been set, and release Lizbet and the rest of the men from their Island jail? Will they beat Andrew Kineer back to England, or will he arrive before them and succeed in striking his own deal with the Knights of St John? Mary is still on the throne, although her state of health is of increasing concern to those around her. Philip, armed with much of England's wealth has left her to continue with the war against France. Catherine is still trapped in Elizabeth's household, and has come to recognise that her own survival is now tied to that of her mistress. William Fitzwarren finds himself in the middle of a ugly battle between his sons, after disinheriting Robert he finds himself prey to his son's bitter temper and can only hope for help.

Well Produced

Another good audio in the series. Characters continue to develop and Richard Fitzwarren's plans continue to fall apart.

I LOVE this series but...

Sam Burnell has a faithful and loyal fan in me. I cannot say enough about this series. I squeal with glee whenever her books have been released on audible. I am now on my second listen through all of the books up through book 5. The Tower storyline wore me out a little bit as I am waiting for the William Fitzwarren storyline to move on. But now I'm checking monthly to see when Book 6 will be released.

A Queen's Assassin

I enjoyed the story line and the narration. There is a lo going on in this book, as with all of the Queen's series, some new story lines, great characters and it was nice to be back in London again. As always though things don't quite go to plan.

What A Story

If you've got this far in the series you will be hoping that finally Richard catches up with his nemesis - I won't go into details but I can say you won't be disappointed - I wasn't.
