A man with one eye is trying to kill young Will Marsden. All Will wants is to get to Stratford where William Shakespeare has promised him work, but somebody seems to think he has important information. And when Shakespeare's daughter Judith is kidnapped, Will and his friend Meg discover that the world of the theatre is not what it seems. Certain actors are spying on their countrymen, on the orders of the queen herself...It takes Will's courage, Meg's ingenuity and the genius of Shakespeare himself to get out of the desperate plot they find themselves mixed up in.

Book Overview: High-profile author who promotes his books very actively. Tudor equivalent of the Roman Mysteries. Historical fiction is the hot new genre. High profile author who promotes his books actively. Lively boy and girl protagonists combined with famous figures from Tudor times bring history to life. A galloping good tale that'll keep you completely enthralled. The Times. Tudor times are part of National Curriculum Key Stages 2 and 3. In a 2001 libraries' survey, Terry Deary was the most-borrowed author of children's non-fiction in Britain. Gorgeous new covers and an updated look for the six-book relaunch. No comparable series. (Doubleday's Lady Grace Mysteries, published in 2004, are very different - told from the point of view of a maid of honour in Elizabeth's court.)
