The Queen's Devil

William Constable Spy Thriller series - Book 3

"Walker skilfully creates a treacherous world of half-truths, plots and duplicity... simmering with impending danger." Michael Ward, author of Rags of Time.

1583.

William Constable, recently married astrologer and mathematician, has settled into routine work as a physician when he is requested to attend two prisoners in the Tower of London. Both are accused of separate acts treason, but their backgrounds suggest there may be a connection.

Sir Francis Walsingham and Lord Burghley urge William to discover further intelligence from the prisoners while tending their injuries from torture.

The agent's investigations lead him to the French Embassy, which lies at the heart of a conspiracy which threatens the nation.

Through his enquiries, an unsuspecting William becomes entangled in a perilous web of politicking and religious fervour.

The threat comes from one the most powerful men in the English court - one referred to as the Queen's Devil.

William faces a race against time to unpick these ties, climaxing in a daring raid on the Embassy.

Paul Walker is the author of the William Constable series of Elizabethan spy thrillers. He lives in London.
