S. J. Parris | Conspiracy
Conspiracy by S. J. Parris is the fifth historical thriller featuring Giordano Bruno, philosopher, heretic and Tudor spy. Paris, 1585: the city stands on the brink of catastrophe. King Henri III fears a coup by the Duke of Guise and his fanatical Catholic League, while the threat of renewed religious violence hangs over the streets. Into this volatile world comes Bruno, only to find himself caught once again between politics, faith and murder.
When Bruno's old rival, Father Paul Lefèvre, is found murdered, his search for the truth draws him deep into the intrigues of the French court, where Catherine de Medici and her network of spies watch every move. Behind the killing lies a secret with the power to threaten the royal houses of both France and England. Rich in Renaissance atmosphere and driven by an intricate mystery, Conspiracy combines espionage, religious conflict and political intrigue in a gripping tale of loyalty, betrayal and survival.
