À propos de cet audio

The era of the Tudors was one of danger, intrigue, conspiracy, and, above all, spies.

The summer of 1553 is a time of danger and deceit. Brendan Prescott, an orphan, has been reared in the household of the powerful Dudley family. Brought to court, Prescott finds himself sent on an illicit mission to the king’s brilliant but enigmatic sister, Princess Elizabeth. But Brendan is soon compelled to work as a double agent by Elizabeth’s protector, William Cecil, who promises in exchange to help him unravel the secret of his own mysterious past.

A dark plot swirls around Elizabeth’s quest to discover the truth about the ominous disappearance of her seriously ill brother, King Edward VI. With only a bold stable boy and an audacious lady-in-waiting at his side, Brendan plunges into a ruthless gambit of half-truths, lies, and murder.

Filled with the intrigue and pageantry of Tudor England, The Tudor Secret is the first book in the Elizabeth I Spymaster Chronicles.

I have to say, that given what I believe the standards of the medieval era might have been, Brendan Prescott would have been a very attractive man. Our narrator helps this of course, with his very attractive sounding voice.

awesome!!

Book 1 of the Spymaster Chronicles is a marvel of story telling. The feel of authenticity how life may have unfolded during the Tudor era at all levels of society, embroidered with fictional fast moving, twisty and suspenseful court intrigue surrounding the succession after King Henry's death, is mesmerizing. As summarized: Filled with the intrigue and pageantry of Tudor England, this is the story of a young man who becomes the intimate spy of England's future queen. I could not put this book down and can't wait to hear the two following volumes. As the writing is, the narration is also masterful.

What a find!
