Description

The Courier's Tale by Peter Walker. In 1532 two words are set on a collision course by Henry VIII's desire for a male heir. As the King's young cousin, an admired scholar living in Italy, it falls to Reginald Pole to make the case for Henry's divorce from Katherine of Argon. And it falls to the hapless Michael Throckmorton - the younger son of an impecunious titled family - to become Thomas Cromwell's messenger to Pole in Rome. Peter Walker is a New Zealander who has lived in London since 1986. He has worked for seven plus years on the Independent and spent three years at the Independent on Sunday, where he was Foreign Editor. His first book, The Fox Boy, was published in 2001.
