Description
London, 1593. Sixteen-year-old Will Hughes is busy working on Shakespeare's stage, stuffing his corsets with straw and pretending to be someone else. Offstage, he's playing a part too. The son of traitors, Will is desperate to keep his identity secret--or else risk being killed int the bloody queen's imperial schemes. All he wants is to lie low until he earns enough coin to return to his family.
But when his mentor, the famous playwright Christopher Marlowe, is murdered under mysterious circumstances, Will's plans are hopelessly dashed. What's worse, Marlow was a spy for the queen, tasked with stalking a killer rumored to be part of an elusive order of assassins, and his secrets and untimely death have put Will under a harsh spotlight. So when Will unwittingly foils an attempt on the queen's life, she names him her next spymaster.
Now, to avoid uncomfortable questions, prison, or an even more terrible fate, Will reluctantly starts his new career, which, yes, will secure him the resources to help his family... but at what cost? Adding insult to injury is the young Lord James Bloomsbury, Will's new comrade in arms, whose entitled demeanor and unfairly handsome looks get under Will's skin immediately.
Together, the two hunt the cunning assassin, defend the queen's life, and pray to keep their own lives... all while an unexpected connection blossoms between them.
