DIVINATION: A CONSPIRACY OF BLOOD
Cambridge University, 1547.
John Dee finds himself in mortal danger when a visiting Polish astronomer is murdered hours after revealing revolutionary astrological techniques.
Pursued by ruthless agents determined to suppress knowledge of a royal coup, Dee is forced from his scholarly sanctuary at Trinity College into the deadly intrigues of Hampton Court Palace.
Can Dee master Kopernik's arcane methods before the killers find him? Will he decipher the astronomer's final, cryptic prediction in time to prevent a Midsummer eve coup? With spies lurking in every shadow and allegiances shifting like quicksand, whom at court can he possibly trust?
In Tudor England, where the stars foretell one's fate, some conspiracies are written in blood.
J. A. Downes was born and raised in England and educated at Imperial College, London University, where he gained a B.Sc. in Physics.
He pursued a busy career in Information Technology in England until he moved with his wife to Alberta, Canada, where they had a horse ranch in the foothills of the majestic Canadian Rocky Mountains. The IT work continued in parallel for another twenty years or so, until retirement and family responsibilities beckoned back in the UK.
He now indulges his passion for history full time with research, writing, and European travel.
