In Luther's Ambassadors, the second of the Prideux mysteries, we rediscover Tom Prideux, now serving the young Anne Boleyn. However, Tom is more than just a servant; at different times, he is her mentor, her confidant 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. Prideux 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 an 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.
