    The Simon & Elizabeth Mysteries Series

    About this series

    Headless corpses found on the streets shock Elizabeth Tudor and the city of London. When one of her own ladies is murdered, Elizabeth joins with new friend Simon Maldon to find the killer. Henry VIII, upset by the possible implications for further religious troubles, assigns one of his Welsh guardsmen, Hugh, to investigate.
    Suspects include a madman, a courtier, a reformer, a well-known criminal, and others, even Elizabeth's castellan. Simon, discovering that he is good at the art of disguise, plays various parts as he works to narrow the list.
    Elizabeth's role in the investigation is kept secret from the king, who would certainly not approve. But it cannot be kept secret from the killer, who in the end turns his attention to them. Simon, Elizabeth, and Hugh face a murderer who is beyond caring how many die, as long as he gets what he wants.

      In the 3rd book of the Simon & Elizabeth Mysteries, Elizabeth Tudor is accused of treason and imprisoned in the Tower of London. Most, including Elizabeth herself and her old friend Simon Maldon, believe she will never leave the place alive. Loyal to a fault, Simon manages to get in to see his "Highness," once a princess but now demoted to simply Lady Elizabeth. Leaving the Tower, Simon meets another old friend, Peto the Pope. Peto is accused of murder but swears he is innocent. Simon investigates to learn what really happened. At the same time, Simon's wife Hannah takes in a frightened pregnant girl who refuses to identify herself. Hannah is captivated when her guest has a baby girl. Childless herself, she's determined to help this mother and child get a start in life. Distracted by his desire to help Elizabeth and prove Peto's innocence, Simon pays little attention to what's happening at home. Neither he nor Hannah realizes they should be listening to each other, and when they finally do, it's too late. In trying to help others, they have put themselves in deadly danger.
