The Spymaster's Brother by Anna Castle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1592 and Anthony Bacon has returned from France and is residing in his brother Francis' home, in Gray's Inn, as an invalid. One evening Francis discovers a body lying near the abandoned coach belonging to Anthony. The clues all seem to point to his secretary Tom Lawson. But worse the murdered man had been spreading rumours concerning Anthony which if believed would ruin his reputation and future plans..
Francis' assistant Thomas Clarady is sent out to investigate with the help of the Bacon brothers.
Another enjoyable and interesting well-written mystery in this delightful series with its well-defined characters.
