The white rose murders : being the first journal of Sir Roger Shallot concerning certain wicked ... / Michael Clynes.
The English have killed James IV of Scotland, and James's widow-queen, Margaret, sister to Henry VIII, has fled to England. Sir Roger Shallot and Benjamin Daunbay are ordered into Margaret's household to resolve certain mysteries. They begin by questioning Selkirk, a half-mad physician, who is susequently found poisoned. The only clue is a poem of riddles, which contains the seeds for other gruesome murders. The faceless assasin always leaves a white rose, the mark of a secret society plotting the overthrow of the Tudor monarchy.
