Prague, 1588. A COURT IN TURMOILThe
Holy Roman Emperor, Rudolf II, wants to expand the boundaries of human
knowledge, and his court is a haven for scientists, astrologers and
alchemists. His abiding passion is the feverish search for the
philosopher’s stone and thus immortality.
The Catholic Church
fears he has pushed too far, into the forbidden realm of heresy - and
the greatest powers in Christendom are concerned about the imperial line
of succession. A MURDERED ALCHEMISTGiordano Bruno is sent
to his court by Sir Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth I’s spymaster. His
task: to contact the famous English alchemist and mystic John Dee,
another of Walsingham’s spies.
But Bruno’s arrival in Prague
coincides with the brutal murder of a rival alchemist - and John Dee
himself has disappeared. AN UNFORGIVING ENEMYOrdered by the
emperor to find the killer, Bruno’s investigations bring him face to
face with an old enemy from the Inquisition. But could the real danger
lie elsewhere? Amidst the jostling factions at court and the religious
tensions brewing in the city, Bruno has to track down a murderer as
elusive as the elixir of life itself.
