About the book
1566. William Harley, Clarenceux King
of Arms, has risked his life to protect a secret document, one which
could endanger Queen Elizabeth’s legitimacy on the throne. But when his
family goes missing, Clarenceux is put to the test.
Will he abandon queen and country to save the ones he loves, or
sacrifice everything to keep the country from plunging into civil war?
Filled with Mortimer’s signature
historical detail, vivid characters, and secret clues that slowly reveal
the mystery of Anne Boleyn,
The Final Sacrament delivers a gripping conclusion to this
Elizabethan adventure, where religious tensions, political intrigue,
and personal vendettas collide.
