Perfect for fans of CJ Sansom, SW Perry, SJ Parris and SG Maclean …
“With skill, the reader is inserted into the sights, sounds, smells and streets of Richard III’s medieval England.”

He's a spy for the king…
In 1483 London, Andrew works as a spy for the king’s brother Richard. Through necessity, he has lived life in the shadows. But when tragedy points to regicide, Andrew delves deeper into a maze of dangerous duplicity.

She's a fighter who barely survived a treacherous relationship…
When young Tyballis discovers her husband arrested for murder, she is delighted. As a young orphan, coerced to marry her abusive neighbour, she was horribly used. Now is her chance to be rid of him for good and find the confidence she never had.

Can they try their hand at uncovering one of England's biggest conspiracies?
When Tyballis joins forces with the motley network of Andrew’s informers and thieves, they are lured into the dark and dangerous world of medieval London’s political intrigue and back alley slums.

It’s not long before Tyballis is accused of murder herself…

A thought-provoking mystery that fuses fact and fiction to stunning effect and explores what it means to be human.

This edition of Blessop’s Wife includes editorial revisions.

What readers are saying:

•“This is a terrific book! As a lover of English history, I was totally engrossed with this story. Spies, treachery, poison, plots against England's throne and romance all combine into a thoroughly absorbing tale. I couldn't stop reading it!”

•“Wow! Well developed, multifaceted, relatable characters set in a historical era fraught with medieval political intrigue come together to create a thoroughly enjoyable book.”

•“I was expecting a common bodice ripping historical romance and was happily surprised to find myself immersed in 15th-century intrigue instead.”

•"A great read that transported the reader instantly into 15th century England. I felt I walked in the footsteps of the characters and lived their lives."

•"Medieval London, the setting for this tale, is as much a character as are the people who populate the city and the story. We see it as it was back in the 1400s."
