Book
Tudor Spy
James of Ecclestone believes the execution of Perkin Warbeck has ended his work as an agent, and he hopes to settle into a quieter life with his new family. Henry VII has other plans. A king who knows James’s abilities sees no reason to release a useful spy simply because one conspiracy has been defeated.
James is therefore drawn back into the dangerous transition from Henry VII’s reign toward the Tudor world inherited by Henry VIII. Court politics, foreign threats and covert loyalties make information a weapon, while James’s desire for domestic stability repeatedly collides with the crown’s demand that he continue working among men who settle political disputes with intrigue and murder.
