Sir Francis needs your help

It is 1576, and Sir Francis Walsingham, spymaster to Queen Elizabeth, has heard rumours of a devious new plot against Her Majesty’s life.

He needs to determine who is behind it, what is their aim and what exactly they plan to do.

Sir Francis’s team of spies and agents have gathered three packs of documents with clues – and he needs your help solving them.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to uncover the mysteries contained within these documents and present your report to Sir Francis.
Her Majesty’s life and realm depends on your ability to piece together the information.

Secrecy is vital – you will be known to Sir Francis and his secretary Thomas Phelippes only by a special codename – which will be given to you when you accept the assignment.

Sir Francis very much hopes you will be able to help, so that the plot can be fully revealed and Her Majesty’s life preserved for the glory of her realm. Submit your report on the first pack and receive a letter of thanks from Thomas Phelippes, together with the second pack. Report on this and receive a letter of thanks from Sir Francis, as well as the final pack. Your report on this last pack will bring you a letter from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth herself.

You will also be entered into a draw to become a character in my new historical action adventure novel, based on this plot, working with Olivia Melrose, Walsingham’s super spy (unless, of course, you would prefer to be a baddie! In which case, Olivia will be ruthless in pursuing you…).
