The Marlowe Conspiracy: A Novel

The Marlowe Conspiracy: A Novel

1593, Elizabethan England: In a turbulent time of wars, famine, and religious persecution, Christopher Marlowe struggles to balance his life as Englandâ€™s most popular playwright with his duties as a government spy.

Suddenly, when he falls under suspicion of atheism, a capital crime, Marlowe fears his many powerful enemies have launched a conspiracy to have him executed.

With only a few days to clear his name, he quickly enlists the aid of a young William Shakespeare â€“ one of the few friends he can still trust. Together, they race through Marloweâ€™s tangled life of crime, espionage, and noble connections to expose the conspiracy and save him from the hangmanâ€™s noose.

But will anything save a man as troubled as Marlowe?
