    Priedeux is a medieval hitman. He is sent to kill the writer of the poem, Gawain and the Green Knight, to stop further seditious texts against the King, Richard II. As he follows the clues in the poem, Priedeux finds himself questioning the very purpose of his vocation. Can he discover the identity of the mysterious author in time to stop rebellion and save his own life? And what will he report to his master, John of Gaunt?

    LUTHER'S AMBASSADORS by Jay Margrave
    In this, the second of the Priedeux mysteries, we rediscover Tom Priedeux, now serving the young Anne Boleyn. However, Tom is more than just a servant; at different times, he is her mentor, her confidante and sometimes her critic. Anne has one overriding ambition: to reform the Catholic Church. The only way she can achieve her aim is to marry a powerful man and use her wiles to influence him to make the changes she wants. This man, of course, is Henry VIII. Priedeux helps her in this aim and when her schemes are going awry he is there to fight her battles; when her life is threatened, he saves her; when she needs a ally, he is there at her side. But for how long can he survive the political battles of the Court without himself becoming a target for powerful men?

    'This is a good book, a story well told ... I love the subplot outlining Priedeux's background ...' (Rebecca Tope, Membership Secretary of the Crime Writers' Association)

    THE NINE LIVES OF KIT MARLOWE by Jay Margrave
