I am reviewing a copy of A Murder by any Name through Crooked Lane Books and Nethalley:
In the Elizabethean court a brutal murder threatens sanctity and a hot tempered spy is the one who must save the day.
The court of Elizabeth 1 is no stranger to plotting and intrigue but the royal retinue is thrown into chaos when the queens youngest and sweetest lady in waiting is murdered, her body is left on the high altar of the Chapel Royal in Whitehall Palace. Nicholas Holt the younger brother of the Earl of Blackwell is spy, take and owner of Black Sheep Tavern in the seedy district of Bankside. Nick learns quickly working for the queen is full of mixed blessings.
Quick tempered Queen Elizabeth can either reward Nick with Gold or have him be headed!
After a second lady in waiting is slain at Whiteall, the court is one again reeling with both shock and dismay on the trail of a horrific murderer nick and his Irish Wolfhound, Hector are treading on treacherous ground, and only the killer’s head on a platter can keep them in the Queen's God graces.
I give A Murder By Any Name five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
