When a battered body is more than murder...it heralds the end of a dynasty. Pulling the battered body of a young boy out of the Thames was not unusual in the cruel England of Bloody Mary. But this was different. The messages on his body tell of a plot which will take the queen's sister, Elizabeth, to The Tower heralding the end of the Tudor dynasty and England's freedom as a nation. Margaretta Morgan, apprenticed to Doctor John Dee for her strange gift of seeing the thoughts of others, will face her first murder mystery. Guided by her master's brilliance and ability to commune with the other side, she will uncover the evil and intrigue which goes to the very heart of Court.
