Description
In the summer of 1545, England teeters on the brink of invasion as Henry VIII's costly war in France falters and a formidable French fleet looms across the Channel. As the nation mobilizes its largest militia ever and the English fleet gathers at Portsmouth, the King's desperate measures to fund the conflict have devalued the currency, adding to the widespread anxiety. Amidst this national crisis, a dangerous conspiracy unfolds, threatening to destabilize the kingdom from within. This gripping historical thriller plunges readers into a world of political intrigue, espionage, and the ever-present threat of war, where survival depends on navigating treacherous alliances and uncovering hidden truths.
