About this listen
Get hold of the second adventure in this gripping Elizabethan mystery series from John Pilkington!
'Thomas proves a dogged, creative and insightful sleuth.’ - Publishers Weekly
MURDER MOST SAVAGE…
When invited to attend the Barrowhill Pleasures at the seat of the extravagant and pompous Earl of Reigate, Sir Robert Vicary of Petbury brings Thomas, his trusted falconer along with him to enjoy the festivities.
But things take a very deadly turn when three of the Earl’s guests are murdered, and the Earl seems eager to cover the deaths up at all costs. With the promise of Queen Elizabeth attending the spectacle, the Earl remains adamant that his dramatic re-enactment of the Spanish Armada should still go ahead - despite the tide of unpleasantness.
As the festivities continue, a killer is on the loose, and Thomas must keep a keen eye on the guests. One of them is not what they seem, and he must discern who before the Earl himself becomes the next target.
Perfect for fans of C. J. Sansom, Andrew Taylor and S. J. Parris.
