Firedrake's Eye
Author(s): Patricia Finney
SECONDHAND BOOKS | Literary Fiction
Brilliantly written in language eerily reminiscent of sixteenth-century England and filled with the dazzling color and drama of Tudor England, " Firedrake's Eye" concerns a meticulously constructed plot to kill Queen Elizabeth I. Tom O'Bedlam, the mad son of prominent Catholic family, stumbles upon evidence that his hated brother has returned to England to spearhead a scheme to assassinate the Queen. Patricia Finney transports the reader back in time to the dirty, dangerous underbelly of 1583 London. Combining accurate and detailed historical research with story-telling of an unusually high caliber, "Firedrake's Eye" brilliantly evokes that danger and treachery of Tudor politics.
1993. A paperback copy in near fine, unmarked condition.
