Enemies at every turn in this medieval mystery thriller perfect for fans of D. V. Bishop and S. J. Parris. Florence, 1342. A city on the brink of chaos. Restored to favor at court, King's Messenger Simon Merrivale accompanies an English delegation to Florence, the powerful center of European finance, to negotiate a loan to offset King Edward III's chronic debt. A top-secret plot, one to decide the fate of European control. But the delegation has another purpose: to set up an Englishman, Henry Stapledon, Bishop of Dorchester, as an anti-pope in Rome. If they can succeed, they will undermine the papacy and strike a hammer blow to French support across Europe. But one devastating betrayal will shatter their hopes. When disaster strikes, Merrivale finds himself alone, isolated, and with a dozen different factions out for his blood. With no way to go but forward, he must plunge back into the seething torrent of Florence's cutthroat streets, and dangers greater than any he has ever faced before, if he is to survive.
