Can true friendship survive a deadly adventure?

1535. Ophelia Williams, youngest daughter of a hot-tempered nobleman, is robbed on the highway. She manages to escape, but cruel Tudor justice means she is the one who faces a public whipping for theft.

When aspiring lawyer Robert Wychwoode comes up with an audacious plan to save her, a strong friendship quickly develops.

Together, Ophelia and Robert then learn about a dangerous Cornish rebellion against Henry VIII, led by a mysterious high-ranking noble. They soon realise that only they can stop it. Can they defeat the desperate rebels by themselves? And will their new-found friendship survive the ordeal? Or will it end up costing them their young lives?

This fast-paced, action packed, historical thriller introduces Robert Wychwoode, the lawyer and spy-master of The Witchfinder’s Well trilogy.
