Book Description
The author of the House of Winslow series offers a thrilling prequel following the ascent of Stuart Winslow in the salacious court of King Henry VIII. Determined to lift himself out of poverty, Stuart Winslow finds his prayers answered when he’s offered a position in the court of King Henry VIII. A skilled falconer and weapon designer, Stuart quickly proves his merits. But beneath the pomp and luxury of court, he discovers a cauldron of vices, power plays, and temptation. When William Tyndale announces his intention to translate the Bible into the language of the common man, the king sentences him to death—and charges Stuart with retrieving him. Though Stuart knows Tyndale, and believes his work to be righteous, defying the king would risk his own death. At the crossroads of faith and ambition, he must make an impossible choice.
