THE DEVIL'S STAIN The year is 1441. Harry Somers looks back on the events which led him to imprisonment in the Tower of London, where he faces execution. He has always been seen by some as cursed because of the vivid birth - mark on his cheek but, despite this and the bullying he suffered as a child, he has become a respected physician in the household of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, uncle to King Henry VI of England. Success in solving a murder leads Harry into darker intrigues and rash entanglements until he is accused of involvement in a treasonable plot. Can he trust the great men, who have employed his services for their own purposes, to save him? Can the woman he loves forgive the pain he has caused her? Racked with guilt and self-disgust, Harry awaits the outcome.
