Infos

Londoner Jack Blackjack finds himself a stranger in a strange land when hes accused of murder in rural Devon in this eventful Tudor mystery. July, 1556. En route to France and escape from Queen Marys men, Jack Blackjack decides to spend the night at a Devon tavern, agrees to a game of dice and ends up accused of murder. To make matters worse, the dead man turns out to have been the leader of the all-powerful miners who rule the surrounding moors and they have no intention of waiting for the official court verdict to determine Jacks guilt. But who would frame Jack for murder . . . and why? Alone and friendless in a lawless land of cut-throats, outlaws and thieves, Jack realizes that the only way to clear his name and save his skin is to unmask the real killer. But knowing nothing of the local ways and customs, how is he to even begin? As Jacks attempts to find answers stirs up a hornets nest of warring factions within the town, events soon start to spiral out of control . . .
