A Very Good Read,
By J. Chippindale (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brood of Vipers (Tudor Mysteries 4) (Paperback)
The spring of 1523 and Benjamin Daunbey, nephew of Cardinal Wolsey and his servant Roger Shallot are summoned from Ipswich to London.Lord Francesco Abrizzi, a Florentine envoy has been murdered in Cheapside. He has been shot in the head by one of the new firearms. King Henry is determined to unmask the killer. During their travel to London Benjamin and Roger are to collect the King's old physician, who has also been summoned by Henry. When they arrive at his house he is found dead in his bath with his wrists cut, apparently having committed suicide. Benjamin and Roger are told by Wolsey they must go to Florence with the dead man's family to discover the identity of the killer. It seem to be a routine case for them, but murder and mayhem await them in Italy. Will they ever see England again. Once again Paul Doherty weaves a tangled web of murder and intrigue. He is certainly one of the best at this type of book.
