Another historical fiction writer, I thought I'd try and read, on recommendation of a librarian customer. Picked up this book from a Swindon charity shop, they did have the other two in this series, but thought it was a bit of gamble. Sometimes I play "safe" too easily :)

Another book on "plots" and so on, being sent in relation to the Bonfire Night "Book Exchange"

"A vivid and gripping historical thriller set in Elizabethan England introducing Giordano Bruno, philosopher, scientist and spy for all fans of C.J.Sansom and The Name of the Rose.

In Elizabeth’s England, true faith can mean bloody murder…

OXFORD, 1583. A PLACE OF LEARNING.
AND MURDEROUS SCHEMES.

England is rife with plots to assassinate Queen Elizabeth and return the country to the Catholic faith. Defending the realm through his network of agents, the Queen’s spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham works tirelessly to hunt down all traitors.

His latest recruit is Giordano Bruno, a radical thinker fleeing the Inquisition, who is sent undercover to Oxford to expose a Catholic conspiracy. But he has his own secret mission at the University – one that must remain hidden at all costs.

When a series of hideous murders ruptures close-knit college life, Bruno is compelled to investigate. And what he finds makes it brutally clear that the Tudor throne itself is at stake…"

Two books, I am sending in the post for The Bonfire Night "Book Exchange" to a fellow Book Crosser. I hope the enjoy the books and the contents of the parcel, that I am sending tomorrow (7 Oct 2015).

Another book about "plots to kill" a la gunpowder plot

Thank you, this looks just my sort of book and I'm looking forward to reading it.
As my TBR pile is massive it may be a while until I can get to it.
Thanks too for the lovely "goodies" you sent, I love them all :-)

Got to it at last!
A very, very good read, it had me hooked from the first page until the last. I am now looking forward to reading more in this series, thank you Zoooz for the introduction to it :-)

Taking to the 2022 UK Uncon in Newcastle to fulfil a wish :-)

yorkshire-lass, thank you so much! So sorry to have missed Newcastle and all the fun, next time hopefully. Thank you also to poodlesister for posting to me.

I don't think I have managed these in the right order, but nonetheless, I've really enjoyed catching up with Giordano Bruno once again. A very good read, touch and go right up to the conclusion!
