TAMBURLAINE MUST DIE

"1593 and London is a city on edge. Under threat from plague and war, it's a desperate place where strangers are unwelcome and severed heads grin from spikes on Tower Bridge." "Playwright, poet and spy, Christopher Marlowe has three days to live. Three days in which he confronts dangerous government factions, double agents, necromancy, betrayal and revenge in his search for the murderous Tamburlaine, a killer who has escaped from between the pages of his most violent play." "Tamburlaine Must Die is the story of a man who dares to defy both God and State - and discovers that there are worse fates than damnation."--BOOK JACKET.
