Cotton Malone is back in Steve Berry's new international adventure, The King's Deception, which blends gripping contemporary political intrigue, Tudor treachery and high-octane thrills. A long-buried secret that calls into question the legitimacy of the entire forty-five-year reign of Elizabeth I, the last Tudor monarch who completed the conquest of Ireland and seized much of its land. Antrim Blake also has a more personal agenda - a twisted game of revenge in which Gary, Cotton's son, is a pawn.

I really enjoyed learning all about the Tudors in this action-packed adventure. It has sparked an interest to read more about Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. I found the characters to be very interesting, good and bad abound. The plot was riveting from the beginning until the surprise ending. Can't wait to read the next Cotton Malone. I would have to mark this one down as my favorite so far. I would highly recommend this series to those who love historical fiction.
