      Rebellion in the city, and a Royalist spy in his own ranks - Damian Seeker, Captain of Oliver Cromwell's guard, must eradicate both in this twisty, action-packed historical thriller for fans of CJ Sansom, Rory Clements and The Three Musketeers. 'MacLean skilfully weaves together the disparate threads of her plot to create a gripping tale of crime and sedition in an unsettled city' Sunday Times London, 1655, and Cromwell's regime is under threat from all sides. Damian Seeker, Captain of Cromwell's Guard, is all too aware of the danger facing Cromwell. Parliament resents his control of the Army while the Army resents his absolute power. In the east end of London, a group of religious fanatics plots rebellion. In the midst of all this, a stonemason uncovers a perfectly preserved body dressed in the robes of a Dominican friar, bricked up in a wall in the crumbling Black Friars. Ill-informed rumours and speculation abound, but Seeker instantly recognises the dead man. What he must discover is why he met such a hideous end, and what his connection was to the children who have started to disappear from around the city. Unravelling these mysteries is challenging enough, and made still harder by the activities of dissenters at home, Royalist plotters abroad and individuals who are not what they seem...

      Ein mysteriöser Fluch liegt auf dem Clan der O'Neills ... 1628. Der junge Schotte Alexander Seaton bekommt eines Tages unerwarteten Besuch: Es ist sein irischer Vetter Sean, der ihn um Hilfe bittet. Der Clan der O'Neills ist von einem der alten irischen Poeten mit einem Fluch belegt worden, der den Mitgliedern der Familie einen baldigen Tod prophezeit. Schon scheint sich der Fluch zu erfüllen: auf eine Hochzeitsfeier folgen mehrere Begräbnisse … In Irland wird Alexander hineingezogen in die blutigen Auseinandersetzungen zwischen den kolonisierenden Engländern und den aufrührerischen Iren. Der Riss geht mitten durch seine Familie – und seine eigene Seele. Doch noch etwas lässt ihm keine Ruhe: Er findet heraus, dass jemand den Poeten für seinen Fluch bezahlt hat. Wer? Und vor allem: warum?
