Description
'Morgan's lively picaresque is a mix of well-informed fact and inventive fiction' (The Guardian)
Perkin Warbeck is the son of a port official in fifteenth-century Tournai. He loves singing in the cathedral choir and accompanying his father on fishing trips. But Perkin has a secret. His real name is Richard -- Richard, Prince of England, thought to have been murdered with his brother, Edward, in the Tower of London.
When his enemies seek him out he must flee, and he embarks on a new life of derring-do, sailing the high sees with the era's greatest adventurers. But Richard cannot avoid his fate forever. He knows that he must return to his homeland to assume the throne that is his birthright. But what is for him a homecoming for the new king is nothing less than an invasion, and Richard comes to learn that the price of his ambition is the blood of innocent men.
