A theatre company bring secrets, magic and murder along with them on their Plague Tour, in this bewitching historical mystery starring physician-sleuth Dr Gabriel Taverner.
"Plausible period detail and characters who feel real bolster the involving plot, and the prose and pacing are both top-notch. The prolific Clare shows no sign of running out of steam" - Publishers Weekly Starred Review
October, 1604. Plague has hit London, and the theatres are closed. But the capitals loss is Plymouths gain, when a London theatre troupe, the Company, arrive on their Plague Tour.
Country physician Gabriel Taverner is both bewitched and unnerved by the Companys sexually charged staging of Othello. The play thrums with magic and witchcraft perilous subjects, with the Kings deadly spies lurking around every corner.
When Gabriels good friend, Coroner Theophilus Davey, tells him of a dangerous, whispered conversation overheard during a brief break, suggesting one of the cast fled London in possession of a terrible secret, Gabriel is even more relieved the Company will soon be on their way.
But then one of the actors collapses, and Gabriel finds himself caught in a waking nightmare, where nothing is as it appears. Death is stalking the Company but how can Gabriel hope to catch a cold-blooded killer, if he cant even trust the evidence of his own eyes?
This page-turning historical mystery will appeal to readers who enjoy theatrical settings, head-scratching puzzles and creepy atmospherics.
