Mystery Historical
Crispin Guest, returning home after a late night, sees a
body hurtling from the uppermost reaches of the London
Bridge. Guest's attempted rescue fails, however, and the
man—an armourer with a shop on the bridge—is dead. While
whispers in the street claim that it was a suicide,
Guest—known in certain London circles as The Tracker for his
skill in solving puzzles—is unconvinced. What Guest uncovers is that the armourer had promised Sir
Thomas Saunfayl, a friend from Guest's former life, that he
would provide him something that would make him unbeatable
in battle, something for which he'd paid a small fortune.
Sir Thomas believes that the item was in fact the Spear of
Longinus - the spear that pierced the side of Christ on the
cross—which is believed to make those who possess it
invincible. Complicating matters is another old friend, Geoffrey
Chaucer, who suddenly comes to London and is anxious to help
Guest find the missing spear, about which he seems to know a
bit too much. With various forces anxious to find the
spear, the life of Sir Thomas in danger and perhaps the very
safety of England hangs in the balance, Guest and his
apprentice Jack Tucker must navigate some very perilous
waters if they are to survive.
