In these three award-winning historical mysteries, young barrister Francis Bacon solves murders and catches spies in Elizabethan England. At least, he does the brainwork. Like his spiritual descendent Nero Wolfe, Francis prefers the comfort of his chambers. He sends his assistant, privateer's son Thomas Clarady, out to do the legwork. Tom, always striving to climb the social ladder, takes to the job with gusto. He meets all manner of people, like Sir Walter Raleigh and Christopher Marlowe, not to mention the beauteous women who pop up everywhere he goes.
