The Galleon's Grave

De: Martin Stephen

Narrado por: Michael Tudor Barnes

It is 1588, and King Philip of Spain has assembled a great fleet and army to crush the English and end Queen Elizabeth's reign.

One man who has inside knowledge of this event is the young Henry Gresham. His good looks, youth, and wealth are the envy of some at court, so his position as spy for Walsingham further endangers his life. When he finds himself sailing on the Armada during his mission to spy on Sir Francis Drake, he's not entirely sure who his enemies are....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A terrific book." ( The Spectator)
"Stephen has a feel for the momentory decisions that can help to shape the course of history - as well, of course, as the cowardice, vainglory and greed." ( The Times)

A Wonderfull Swim

This is a thoroughly engrossing swim through the English Channel with both Drake and the Armarda. You don't quite know what Henry Greham is up to until the last but, like Manion, you are ready to defend him which ever way that he turns. A great listen - it made me go and order the rest of Martin Stephen's books on Audible.

A tale of Elizabethan treachery and deceit

Henry Gresham is he an agent, double agent, triple agent, a traitor or an honourable man. Gresham and his manservant Manion step carefully and sometimes savagely through treacherous Elizabethan England and Europe. A gripping tale.
