Embarrassment Quotient: Skyhigh!- Please see the entry for The Alchemist's Apprentice. All of the factors there still apply, except that the cover is even worse!
- Please see the entry for AA
- Also, excellent mini-treatise on codewriting/breaking.
- I love it!
Synopsis:
Alfeo is back. This time, he is hunting a spy and a murderer who might or might not be the same person. The coded messages from the spy have been intercepted by the Council of Ten and Nostradamus has been put on the case. The arrival of an old acquaintance of Alfeo's signals the start of the saga. There is a repeat appearance by Alfeo's beloved courtesan. Also, there's a wonderful scene referencing the trials of the Knights Templar, with especial reference to good old Baphomet.
I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a fun read!
