Summary
England, 1586.
A treasonous conspiracy....
Giordano Bruno returns to England to bring shocking new intelligence to Sir Francis Walsingham. A band of Catholic Englishmen are plotting to kill Queen Elizabeth and spring Mary Queen of Scots from prison to take the English throne in her place.
A deadly trap....
Bruno is surprised to find that Walsingham is aware of the plot, led by the young, wealthy noble Anthony Babington and is allowing it to progress. His hope is that Mary will put her support in writing - and condemn herself to a traitor's death.
A queen in mortal danger....
Bruno is tasked with going undercover to join the conspirators. Can he stop them before he is exposed? Either way a Queen will die; Bruno must make sure it is the right one....

Terrific!
I’ve enjoyed all the Bruno books but this was particularly good. He’s such a likeable character and although I knew how the Babington plot ended, it was an exciting and gripping read. The narration was excellent. Recommended.

Another great story woven into real history
Great to hear a wide variety of characters reflecting the ethnic, sexual and neurodiverse real world that existed then as now.

A good listen
If you are a fan of S J Paris I don’t think you will be disappointed. I enjoy Bruno’s character now as much as I love C J Samson’s Matthew Shardlake. The book is well written and moves at a fair pace. Sadly my one criticism is the narrator’s accent for Bruno, it so often reverts to a British accent instead of Italian. But that said, overall I enjoyed the narration and it didn’t distract me too much from the story line.

Sadly let down by the reader
Having listened to the previous audiobooks in this series read by Laurence Kennedy, I was very disappointed by the reader on this one. Laurence Kennedy did a fantastic job of vocalising the different characters, a feat that this reader did not match in my opinion. It seemed that he couldn't be bothered with the character vocalisation at all.
Excellent story let down by woeful performance.
Please try and get the same reader for multi character novels.

Historical sensation.
Fantastic storytelling set in the religious tormoil of Elizabethan England if you enjoy history, pacifically Tudor era, you will love this, not the same but similar to shardlake in its atmosphere and the way the story takes you back to those mad times in our history.
The narrator is also very good as often a poor storyteller will ruin even the best of books, so have a listen you won't regret it I'm sure!
