The Assassin's Mark - by G J Williams (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

It is March 1570 and Elizabeth's court has just crushed the Northern rebellion that sought to throw her from the throne in favor of Mary Queen of Scots.

Relief is shattered when a body is found near the palace. The ritualistic killing, a cloven hoof-print, a calling card, and the terrifying message daubed on the wall, point to a long-forgotten pagan deity linked to the Templars.

John Dee and Margaretta must navigate a community under threat, a pattern of poisoning, a City in fear of a specter, and the dark arts of rival queens as they race between England and the courts of France to uncover an assassin known only as Baphomet.
