Author Book List

A female spymaster will face mortal danger to protect her
husband and her queen. . .

London, 1582: Mistress Rosamond Jaffrey, a talented and
well-educated woman of independent means, is recruited by
Queen Elizabeth I’s spymaster, Sir Francis Walsingham, to
be
lady-in-waiting to Lady Mary, a cousin of the queen. With
her talent in languages and knowledge of ciphers and
codes,
she will be integral to the spymaster as an intelligence
gatherer, being able to get close to Lady Mary just at the
time when she is being courted by Russia’s Ivan the
Terrible.

However, there are some nobles at court who will do
anything
they can to thwart such an alliance; and Rosamond soon
realizes the extent of the danger, when a prominent
official
is murdered and then an attempt is made on both her and
Lady
Mary’s lives.

In her quest to protect her ward – and her estranged
husband
– Rosamond must put herself in mortal peril.
