Ursula's quiet life on her Surrey estate is thrown into chaos by the
arrival of a new neighbour in this absorbing Tudor mystery.
August, 1582. The queen's spymaster, Sir Francis Walsingham, has
ordered Ursula to keep an eye on her new neighbour, Giles Frost, who is
rumoured to be spying for King Philip of Spain. Arriving at Knoll House
on the pretext of teaching his two daughters embroidery, Ursula's secret
mission is to feed false information to Frost to pass on to the Spanish.
Walsingham has assured Ursula that she'll be in no danger. But events
take a decidedly sinister turn when a body is found in the woods near
Ursula's home, a stained glass window is smashed and a bridal dowry is
stolen.
What secrets are contained within the Knoll House ... and is Ursula
being lured into a lethal trap?
