The twenty-fifth enthralling Hugh Corbett medieval mystery from Paul Doherty, perfect for fans of C. J. Sansom, E. M. Powell and Bernard Cornwell.

May 1313. Edward of England and his beautiful wife Isabella journey to France to meet Isabella's redoubtable father King Philip IV. Murder, however, has set up camp in the royal household. Attacks on Queen Isabella culminate in the most dreadful assault at Poissy, where Isabella's silken pavilion is torched and the queen barely escapes with her life.

Corbett is brought in to investigate and reveal who could possibly want to assassinate the young queen and why. Drawn into the deadly intrigue that swirls through the courts of England and France, Corbett must tread carefully, ever fearful that he could swiftly turn from hunter to hunted . . .
