In 1570, Pope Pius V signed a document that changed everything. With a single papal bull, Elizabeth I became a heretic—excommunicated, her assassination blessed by Rome, her subjects absolved of all loyalty. For thirty-three years, Elizabeth navigated a world where every Catholic courtier might be an assassin and every foreign ambassador a spy. The Northern Rising. The Ridolfi conspiracy. Mary, Queen of Scots. The Spanish Armada. The Earl of Essex's betrayal.

Cesare Borgia, former cardinal, Duke of Valentinois and Romagna, has been a figure of awe and scorn for generations. Seemingly compelled to explore this fascinating historical figure's true nature, Rafael Sabatini brought Borgia life as no one had before. Drawn to the passion, suspicion, betrayal, and ambition of Borgia's brief but exciting life, Sabatini penned seven short stories set during the Italian Renaissance: "The Honour of Varano", "The Test", "Ferrante's Jest", "Gisimondi's Wage", "The Snare", "The Lust of Conquest", and "The Pasquinade". These stories are collected here.
