About the book
Jack Blackjack on Trial
Jack Blackjack is facing serious accusations in the latest installment of the Bloody Mary Tudor mystery series. In April of 1555, a priest was found murdered in the village of St Botolph, just outside London. Jack finds himself as the prime suspect in this heinous crime, with his reputation and freedom on the line.
Despite his own personal reasons for wanting to uncover the truth behind the priest's death, Jack soon realizes that this case is much more complex than it seems. Was it a simple robbery gone wrong, or is there a darker secret lurking in the shadows of the village?
As Jack delves deeper into the lives of those who knew the victim, he discovers a web of lies and deceit that threaten to derail his quest for justice. With time running out and danger lurking around every corner, Jack must tread carefully to uncover the truth before it's too late.
But just as he starts to make progress in his investigation, a new threat emerges that could spell disaster for Jack and everyone involved. Will Jack be able to solve the mystery and clear his name, or will he become the next victim in this deadly game of deception?
