From number one bestselling author S. J. Parris, Execution is the sixth Tudor thriller featuring Giordano Bruno, heretic, philosopher and spy.

England, 1586. 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. 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. 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...

Excellent pace from the beginning . The characters have dimension and the plot is a fresh take on existing facts. Obviously written with'licence' but still has a feeling of authenticity. The reader adds to the story telling and I think it is the best one yet.

This story with the Babbington poet as background is imaginative and well told.

The characters develop well from the previous stories but could be read on its own. The plot is well paced and not too obvious.

Excellent story, well delivered

This was the first audio book I listened to in this series, as I got it in the sale. I will definitely be listening to the others now. A really good story of court intrigue and the heart of Elizabethan England. Bruno I’d a great character too, in many ways quite a ruthless ex monk but one who also has compassion and a love for his fellow people. Well worth listening to with a strong audible narrator.

Great story of betrayal and loyalty, intrigue and deception at the heart of Queen Elizabeth 1 England.
