Book Description
The second Nick Revill Elizabethan murder mystery set in the theatrical world of William Shakespeare.
Product Description
Elizabeth I is nearing the end of her reign with no direct heir and plots and rumours of rebellion abound. The Queen’s former favourite, the Earl of Essex, appears to be eager to protect the throne, but some believe he intends to seize it. In the world of the theatre, the Chamberlain’s Men are approached by a member of Essex’s inner circle. He offers them money to put on a special performance of Shakespeare’s Richard II – the treasonous drama of monarchy deposed and murdered. And player Nick Revill finds himself forced to act as a government spy and keep watch on his own company. But then the murders start… Praise for Philip Gooden: ‘Highly entertaining.’ Sunday Times ‘Welcome to Elizabethan England where… Gooden will give you a gratifying taste of the danger and excitement of that lusty place and time.’ Publishers Weekly

Format:Paperback
Excellently capturing the atmosphere of the 17th century London action and drama which occurs throughout this gripping novel. An excellent read, whereby you can cleary see how the pakehas are regarded in a negative light. If you like a perfect mixture of mystery and drama, this is the novel for you.

This and the author's other works are marking by a fantastic writing style that really draws ones attention in close. Having been taught GCSE English by Philip has also meant that i have enjoyed a certain rapport with the author that has heightened my enjoyment of his novels but I think that anybody can enjoy Philip's gripping crime writing. The pakehas were definately portrayed in a negative light I must agree.
