CUE FOR TREASON
BY
Geoffrey Trease
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Using many elements of the detective
story genre, Cue for Treason has dramatised the cost of
maintaining the English throne in the life of one loyal boy, Peter Brownrigg.
Depicting him as a typical lad who comes to London and gets caught up in
colorful activities at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Trease has created a
memorable record of life for an individual in one of the greatest periods of
English history. Successfully countering intrigue with integrity, Peter
passionately short-circuits a royal assassination and saves the Tudor throne. Cue
for Treason is the story of Peter's homecoming more than an aborted
assassination. He returns home in disguise like Odysseus.
