When the predator becomes the prey it’s time to fight.
Myles Devereux’s criminal empire is under threat, someone wants rid of him, and he’s being framed for murder.
Devereux runs the lawless criminal gangs of Tudor London, controlling seedy taverns, brothels and excelling at extortion.
He is both feared and successful.
Connected to the crown through dubious lineage, he flaunts himself as royalty over the London underclass. Yet someone is daring to challenge him, murdering his bookkeeper and debtors and the Sherrif’s men are quick to accuse Devereux of the crimes. Richard Fitzwarren, the queen’s emissary, brings further terrible news, and Devereux realises the trap has been set with one final charge that will see him burn – Heresy.
Devereux must find out who is behind the killings and stop them before he loses not only his business but his life.
