4.1 out of 5 stars 248 ratings
Tom Walsingham returns in another deadly espionage adventure! For fans of Rory Clements, S J Parris, S W Perry and Andrew Taylor.

The shadow of treachery hangs over the realm…

England, 1586

Tom Walsingham has been tasked with keeping watch over the network of spies recruited by his spymaster cousin, Sir Francis Walsingham.

After intercepting a series of letters sent to and from Chartley Castle, where Mary Queen of Scots has been imprisoned, the spies have infiltrated a ring of Catholic plotters. Led by the zealous Anthony Babington, the conspirators plan to murder Queen Elizabeth and replace her with Mary, thus restoring Catholicism to the realm.

With most of the plotters under careful observation, the spies have only to wait for the right moment to have them arrested. However, when one of Tom’s couriers — Isaac Finch — goes missing, it seems that Babington’s conspirators may suspect that they have informers in their midst.

Fearing that Finch may have been forced to reveal the spies’ plans, Tom vows to find out who killed him.

As he follows the sinister trail, Tom discovers that there is no shortage of people who may have wished Finch harm. And with the queen and the realm under threat, the pressure is on to solve the mystery before any more of Sir Francis’s recruits are lost…

Have Sir Francis’s spies been discovered? Is there a traitor in their midst?

And can Tom unravel the courier’s fate before Babington’s plotters act on their treasonous scheme…?

A DEADLY COMPLOT is a page-turning espionage adventure thriller set during the Elizabethan era in Tudor England. It is the fourth book in The Tom Walsingham Mysteries series.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

C. P. has been called an Anglomaniac, an editor, a playwright, a translator, a blogger, and several kinds of writer – and never denied any of it. She lives in the whereabouts of Mantua, Italy (incidentally the place where Shakespeare’s Romeo gets the poison) in the company of her very patient mother, two unhinged cats and a large garden.

She began by studying the Classics and International Relations – and then swerved to the timber trade first, and later the pen and the stage. A passion for history and stories has led her to write historical fiction both in Italian and English.

A serious theatre-geek, she also writes, directs, teaches playwriting, does backstage work, and very occasionally understudies with Mantua’s historic Compagnia Campogalliani.

C.P. writes The Tom Walsingham Mysteries, murder mysteries with a dash of espionage, set in Elizabethan times, between England and France.

    I love the history in these novels, and the way Tom becomes embroiled in investigating deaths, but Nick Skeres is still my favourite character. This series continues to intrigue and entertain.

    I found the characters and the history interesting but I did find that I was confused quite often. Would certainly read more of the series.
