Can true friendship survive a deadly adventure?

When aspiring lawyer Robert Wychwoode comes up with an audacious plan to save her, a strong friendship quickly develops.

Together, Ophelia and Robert then learn about a dangerous Cornish rebellion against Henry VIII, led by a mysterious high-ranking noble. They soon realise that only they can stop it. Can they defeat the desperate rebels by themselves? And will their new-found friendship survive the ordeal?

Or will it end up costing them their young lives?

This fast-paced, action packed, historical thriller introduces Robert Wychwoode, the lawyer and spy-master of The Witchfinder's Well trilogy. It is perfect for fans of C.J. Sansom, S.J. Parris, S.W. Perry and Andrew Taylor.
