The Queen's Agent by John Cooper

A captivating exploits of Sir Francis Walsinghamthe first great English spymaster and the man who saved Elizabeth I's regime.
“As thrilling and suspenseful as any modern spy novelIt was a life that spanned one of the more turbulent periods in English history: the Tudor Era. This engaging narrative makes it clear how much England’s transformation had to do with Walsingham’s intelligence operations.” -- Publishers Weekly
“A superb new account of Walsingham and the Tudor age that paints a John le Carré-like world of double dealing and intrigue. The Queen’s Agent brilliantly recreates Elizabethan England in all its cloak-and-dagger intrigue and glory. George Smiley would have liked it.” -- The Sunday Telegraph
