Optioned for new Game of Thrones-style series.
Meet Richard Fitzwarren: a mercenary with a dubious past, questionable morals, but unswerving loyalties.
Two queens, two brothers...and a secret that unites them all.
The Fitzwarren brothers share no great love for each other, but disinherited, hunted for treason, and wanted for murder, circumstance and opportunity lead them into the shadowy world of Royal Court intrigue. Caught up between two sisters in a battle for an uneasy crown, the Fitzwarren brothers grudgingly find their survival and fortune depends on each other.
Jack Fitzwarren, Richard’s displaced bastard brother, seeks a place at his brother’s side. Impulsive and hot-headed, his attempts to gain his brother’s acceptance and approval often end badly. Finally, they are brought head-to-head when Richard tries to foil a plot against Elizabeth I.
Can Jack murder his brother to save a woman he’s never met?
Will Richard accept his fate and fight? Or will he run?
As Tudor England erupts following the death of Edward VI, can one young spy protect his queen? International best-selling author Sam Burnell takes us deep into the treacherous world of powerful monarchs, intrigue, murder, and treason with this magnificent new epic, A Queen’s Spy.
In 1553, England is torn apart by religious conflict. Power shifts precariously between Catholics and Protestants, royalty and commoners clash testing friendship, loyalty, and brotherly love.
Richard Fitzwarren, caught in the middle of a cruel family feud, wants nothing more than to make his own way in the world. A childhood friend of the Princess Elizabeth, he cannot forget his loyalty in her time of need.
If you like Bernard Cornwell then this is a story for you.

Enjoyed watching the relationship evolve between bastard brothers Richard and Jack. Wonderful twists in the book and plenty of action. Richard's charisma and eidetic memory give him confidence bordering on arrogance. Calloused and often dislikable, Richard redeems himself just often enough that a reader can't quite come to loathe him. Jack on the other hand is the brutish and impatient half brother who would rather lower his head and charge like an angry bull at a problem rather than go through the mental contortions necessary to think around the problem. Jack also exhibits a vulnerability in his somewhat one-sided interest in establishing a more open and honest relationship with his brother Richard. Despite their extreme differences, the one thing they have in common is their violent, loathsome brother Robert who would like nothing more than to see both their heads on a spit in order to fully secure his immense wealth and standing in society. Who will prevail?
Medieval Adventure. Historical Fiction. Wonderful!
