Synopsis: In this mystery by the author of Crooked Herring, a lawyer in Cromwell&’s England receives dangerous info that could stop a murder—or get him killed. John Grey is a newly minted lawyer and would-be ladies&’ man with a bad habit of poking his nose into other people&’s business and getting tangled up in intrigue. That&’s unfortunate, because a mis-delivered letter from royalists has left Grey with more information about a murderous plot than it&’s entirely safe to know. Can Grey prevent the murder? And of infinitely more importance, can he keep his mouth shut long enough to save his own skin?Praise for A Masterpiece of Corruption&“Tyler cleverly marries plot and period in his sequel to A Cruel Necessity set during the protectorate of Oliver Cromwell . . .. Tyler&’s judicious use of dry humor enhances a page-turning and plausible story line.&” —Publishers Weekly&“A dizzying whirl of plot and counterplot.&” —The Guardian (UK)
