Get ready for the third thrilling title in John Pilkington's gripping Thomas the Falconer Tudor mystery series! Perfect for fans for S J Parris and Andrew Taylor 🩸☠️
'This tale gives an authentic sense of Elizabethan life's visceral side with all its lawlessness and brutality' - Publishers Weekly
A LURE TO MURDER
Thomas Finbow, falconer to Sir Robert Vicary, is sent to the remote Salisbury Plain by his master to assist on the estate of the impoverished Sir Giles Buckeridge. Thomas is to train a ramage hawk - an immature, half-wild bird - and to teach the arts of falconry to Sir Giles's young ward, Gervase.
It soon becomes clear, however, that Sir Giles has much bigger problems than falconry as he is struggling to secure respectable futures - and provide sufficient dowries - for his three spirited daughters.
Within days of Thomas's arrival, Sir Giles's eldest daughter Jane vanishes - assumed to have run away from her unhappy betrothal to a wealthy older man, Stephen Ridley. But the search for a missing girl soon turns into a hunt for a murderer, and as the body count rises, Thomas has no choice but to do what he does best - hunt his prey...
Perfect for fans of C J Sansom, Andrew Taylor and S J Parris.
