Paris, 1585. Giordano Bruno returns to the court of Henry III as the French monarchy faces pressure from the Catholic League and the Duke of Guise. When an old associate is murdered inside the royal palace, Bruno is ordered to investigate a crime that powerful factions would prefer to control.
His search leads through court rivalries, Catherine de’ Medici’s intelligence networks and the streets of a city close to renewed religious violence. The dead man’s secret threatens both the French crown and England, leaving Bruno caught between competing masters and uncertain of which side intends to silence him.
