About the Book
Who can you trust when everyone has a motive…?
London, 1590
Tom Walsingham is now married with a child on the way. He should be settled, but his work for the gravely ill spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham always gets him into trouble.
An old foe, the Portuguese spy Manuel d’Andrada, is suspected of leaking information to Spain during his brief stay in the Fleet Prison.
But when one of Sir Francis’s men is sent to investigate, he disappears, suggesting the informant may still be behind bars.
So, when Tom’s creditors file a suit against him, he lets himself be imprisoned for debt to try to uncover who is leaking state secrets from the inside.
He soon discovers the Fleet has a motley population of embittered Catholics and greedy keepers, any of whom could be selling information for political or financial reasons.
When one of the men Tom questions dies, it looks like an accident; when a second death occurs, it can be no coincidence.
As Tom gets himself into increasingly dangerous situations, he must find his way out of the prison urgently.
Can he find the mole before it’s too late…?
