'I love P.F. Chisholm's mysteries! Robert Carey is irresistible, a swashbuckling courtier who is cousin to the Tudor queen, impulsive, courageous, too clever by half, in love with an unhappily married woman, and best of all, it is all true' Sharon Penman.

'Sir Robert Carey is real – a swashbuckling, chivalrous dandy. He's cousin to Queen Elizabeth I and related to almost everybody at Court. He's good at war and investigations, a serious fashion-victim with a quick temper and an ingenious imagination. I have lifted him pretty much unchanged from the pages of his memoirs. As G.M. Fraser said, "If Sir Robert Carey hadn't existed, it would have been necessary to invent him"' P.F. Chisholm.
