A New York Times Notable Book Set in 17th century England, this bestselling historical mystery is thrilling tale of conspiracy and murder?May well be the best ?historical mystery? ever written.?-The Sunday Boston Globe"It is 1663, and England is wracked with intrigue and civil strife. When an Oxford don is murdered, it seems at first that the incident can have nothing to do with great matters of church and state....Yet, little is as it seems in this gripping novel, which dramatizes the ways in which witnesses can see the same events yet remember them falsely. Each of four narrators-a Venetian medical student, a young man intent on proving his late father innocent of treason, a cryptographer, and an archivist-fingers a different culprit...an erudite and entertaining tour de force." -People
