Adventure, friendship, treason and betrayal. A dazzling historical novel from the award-winning Berlie Doherty.

Will Montague is a page to Prince Edward, son of King Henry VIII. As the King’s favourite, Will gains many enemies in Court. His enemies convince the King that Will’s father has committed treason and he is thrown into Newgate Prison. Will flees Hampton Court and goes into hiding in the back streets of London. Lost and in mortal danger, he is rescued by a poor boy, Nick Drew. Together they must brave imprisonment and death as they embark on a great adventure to set Will’s father free.

‘Doherty paints a very vivid picture… almost Shardlake for young readers’ Independent on Sunday

It is good for school and it teaches you about what it was like in modern day and tells you what treason means .

I liked this book since it was mysterious and a bit scary at times... It interested me because it was set in the Tudor Times and I was learning about the Tudors... I would 100% recommend this book for people who like mysteries...

Not pleasant to read in places but it's a great insight of what life was like during Tudor Times. I would recommend it to those who really like history and enjoy adventure.

I had very mixed feelings. It was historical and intriguing, but didn't really 'excite' me
